Image-to-Image
Edit and modify existing images by uploading an image and describing the changes you want. Perfect for style transfer, adding elements, changing colors, or transforming images.
How It Works
Enable Generate Media - Toggle the Generate Media button in the composer
Attach an image - Upload or drag & drop the image you want to edit
Model auto-switches - System automatically switches to edit variant
Describe changes - Write a prompt describing what to modify
Configure settings - Set aspect ratio and resolution
Generate - Click send to create edited image
Automatic Model Switching
When you attach an image, the system automatically:
Detects image attachment - Recognizes you want to edit
Switches to edit variant - Changes from text-to-image to image-to-image model
Maintains model family - Stays in same model family (Flux → Flux Edit)
Reverts when removed - Switches back to text-to-image when image removed
Example:
You select "Flux 2 Max" (text-to-image)
You attach an image
System auto-switches to "Flux 2 Max Edit" (image-to-image)
You remove the image
System switches back to "Flux 2 Max"

What to Describe
Focus on the changes you want, not the entire image:
Specific modifications - What exactly should change?
Style changes - Different aesthetic or look
Additions - New elements to add
Removals - Elements to remove
Color adjustments - Color changes or corrections
Good Edit Prompts
✅ Style Transfer:
✅ Adding Elements:
✅ Color Changes:
✅ Specific Modifications:
Bad Edit Prompts
❌ Too Vague:
❌ Describes Entire Image:
(The image already shows this)
❌ No Clear Change:
(Doesn't specify what to change)
Common Editing Tasks
Style Transfer
Transform the aesthetic of your image:
Film look: "Make this look like 35mm film with warm tones and grain"
Painting style: "Transform into an oil painting with brushstroke texture"
Vintage: "Give this a vintage 1980s aesthetic with retro colors"
Cinematic: "Make this cinematic with dramatic lighting and color grading"
Adding Elements
Add new elements to your image:
Objects: "Add a vintage camera on the table"
People: "Add a person walking in the background"
Environment: "Add rain and wet streets"
Effects: "Add lens flares and bokeh lights"
Removing Elements
Remove unwanted elements:
Objects: "Remove the car in the background"
People: "Remove all people from the scene"
Text/Logos: "Remove the text overlay"
Distractions: "Remove the power lines and poles"
Color Adjustments
Change colors and mood:
Color correction: "Fix the white balance, remove the blue cast"
Color grading: "Apply warm, golden hour color grading"
Mood changes: "Make colors more vibrant and energetic"
Style shifts: "Change to a cool, desaturated color palette"
Composition Changes
Modify layout and framing:
Crop/extend: "Extend the sky upward to make it taller"
Reposition: "Move the subject to the left side"
Background: "Replace the background with a mountain landscape"

Aspect Ratio Considerations
Matching Source Image
Best practice: Use the same aspect ratio as your source image
Prevents distortion
Maintains composition
Preserves important elements
Ensures proper framing
Changing Aspect Ratio
If you change the aspect ratio:
Image may be cropped
Important elements might be cut off
Composition may shift
Use with caution
Tips for Best Results
Be specific about changes - "Add rain" vs. "make it better"
Reference the image - "Change the sky" vs. "a sky"
Describe style clearly - "Vintage film look" vs. "old style"
Keep changes focused - One or two major changes work best
Use appropriate model - Flux for quality, Turbo for speed
Match aspect ratios - Use same ratio as source image
Iterate if needed - Make multiple passes for complex edits
Common Workflows
Quick Style Change
Upload image
Select model (auto-switches to edit variant)
Prompt: "Make this look [style]"
Generate
Review and iterate if needed
Adding Elements
Upload base image
Prompt: "Add [element] to [location]"
Generate
Refine if needed
Color Correction
Upload image
Prompt: "Fix the colors, remove [color cast], make it [mood]"
Generate
Compare before/after
Troubleshooting
"Changes are too subtle"
Solutions:
Be more specific in your prompt
Use stronger descriptive words
Try different models (Flux for stronger edits)
Make the change request more explicit
"Image structure is lost"
Solutions:
Be more specific about what to preserve
Use models that maintain structure better (Flux, GPT Image)
Avoid requesting too many changes at once
Iterate with smaller changes
"Wrong elements changed"
Solutions:
Be more specific about what to modify
Reference locations ("background", "foreground")
Use Canvas Editor for precise control
Try different phrasing
"Model didn't switch to edit"
Solutions:
Ensure image is properly attached
Check that model has an edit variant
Some models may not auto-switch
Manually select edit variant if needed
