### Understanding the Settings

Each model has its own settings panel. While the exact options vary slightly between models, here is what you will commonly find and what each setting means:

| Settings               | What it does                                                                                                                |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Prompt**             | Describe the image you want to create. The more detail the better.                                                          |
| **Quality**            | Controls the level of detail and rendering. Higher quality = sharper result, more credits.                                  |
| **Size / Resolution**  | The dimensions of the output image. Choose based on where you will use it (e.g. square for social media, wide for banners). |
| **Aspect Ratio**       | The width-to-height ratio. Use 1:1 for social media, 16:9 for video thumbnails and presentations.                           |
| **Background**         | Set to transparent if you need a cutout for design work.                                                                    |
| **Reference Images**   | Upload existing images to guide, transform, or edit. Depending on the model you can upload up to 3–10 reference images.     |
| **Input Fidelity**     | How closely the output follows your reference image. Low = more creative freedom. High = stays closer to your reference.    |
| **Output Format**      | The file format of the generated image. Use `webp` or `jpg` for web use. Use `png` for transparent backgrounds.             |
| **Output Compression** | Controls file size vs. quality. The default is the sweet spot for most use cases.                                           |

### Pricing

Each model has a different credit cost per generation depending on the quality and complexity of the output. You can see the exact credit cost and estimated number of runs at the bottom of each model's settings panel before you hit Generate.

{% hint style="info" %}
💡 Credit Tip: Test your prompt with a faster, lower-cost model first to get the composition and style right. Once you are happy, switch to a premium model like FLUX Pro 1.1 Ultra or Google Imagen 4 for the final high-quality version.
{% endhint %}

### Writing a Great Image Prompt

The more detail you give, the better your result. A strong image prompt includes:

→ Subject - What is the main focus of the image?\
→ Style - Is it photorealistic, illustrated, cinematic, minimalist?\
→ Mood - Is it bright and energetic, dark and moody, warm and inviting?\
→ Colours - Any specific colour palette?\
→ Composition - Close-up, wide shot, bird's eye view?
