My response wasn't snarky, it was factual, I wasn't going to get into an argument over something I can't control. The moderators don't set censorship guidelines, and directing your frustration at them over the situation is fruitless. Censorship is a subjective issue that will never please anyone, we've had plenty of angry users here also complain about the opposite, that Adobe's censorship doesn't go far enough. The user guidelines are the closest thing I can point to that explain the censorship in so far as what is censored. If you share the specific image you're working with here, you can try and get assistance with getting the image to generate, one solution would be to crop out the part that is causing a censorship issue, use generative extend, and then composite the generated portion into the original image

[wheat thistle]

Hey there! I am new here. Looking to learn new here

[wheat thistle]

I am really curious for the Generate Video powered by the Adobe Firefly Video Model. As I have already joined the waitlist. I don't know when I'm going to use this feature and what I can create. Is there anyone who is already using Generate Video

[astral jolt]

There are. Firefly Video is in roll out phase, there is much interest about the feature and excitement is absolitely understandable, however patience is needed

[wheat thistle]

I hope that you are already using it. How are the results? How satisfied you are with those videos.

[astral jolt]

I can't give any spoilers sadly, but can say it's worth waiting

How can i AI expand an Image on my Android phone to a 9:16 Format? (Not 16:9)

[crystal sundial]

You would have to do it free form. There is no option to do that specific aspect ratio.

[limber spruce]

Thats okay, but how

[crystal sundial]

I would select freeform and visually make it to look 9:16 and then take it into photoshop or adobe express and crop it to exactly 9:16.

[limber spruce]

Okay, but how i can expand it?

[limber spruce]

@crystal sundial

[crystal sundial]

Sorry, I went to eat breakfast. 😃

You can use generative fill on firefly web site.

[limber spruce]

Oh sorry, i didnt want to disturb you

Thank you!

[crystal sundial]

Then use the expand function

After selecting expand, you can actually specify the width and height pixels so you can manually compute what they should be for 9:16

[limber spruce]

👍

[naive cedar]

Hello everybody,
I am just arrived here with two big questions, (hoping is here the right place to post them...):

1 - when will be possible to generate any kind of image with alpha channel (Don't you find it quite incredible that there is no AI tool today capable of generating images with alpha channels...?)?
2 - Is it possible to give in input two reference images - for examples a photo of a man and a woman - and ask to create an AI Character (photorealistic or not) that is the synthesis of the two photos given as input? In short, as if the result of the generated image was that of a son or a daughter that is based on the physiognomic traits of the two photos given as input?

I thank all in advantage for a glad reply! And happy new year, of course!

Hi there,
I am new to Firefly and I want to generate pictures. In fact, I want to generate a background picture with some delicious meal in a kitchen and then integrate a product shot into that picture. how can I do this so that the perspective is also correct. Does anybody have experience with this and could help me?

[astral jolt]

You can attempt to load product as a composition reference and prompt for the rest, but it sounds like a task for photoshop rather

[honest quiver]

You're probably not going to be able to generate a specific product into an image in perspective. Composition reference will keep the general layout of something but it will not keep an exact product. You'd need a mock-up for that, photoshop or illustrator

depends on what your goal is exactly, you can certainly use structure and style reference in firefly to get a general idea of an outfit on a model, but if you want to put a very specific logo on something, your best bet would be something like a photoshop mock-up or the mock-up tool in illustrator

where can I find the best prompts for firefly?

[wild drum]

best prompts is hard to define, the best prompts are those that give you the result you want.

In my experience the simpler the prompt is, the better the result. Long prompts filled with nouns and adjectives will easily confuse it – even though it works a poetics. Keep it simple and specific.

If you need inspiration you can look at the gallery on the Firefly website or here at Discord in #1174147201530859591

One could potentially develop a spreadsheet that shows well-known, well-performing keywords, strings and an example of the output. However, one of the problems is: when the model is updated and re-trained with new data, those keywords and tokens might not perform in the same way.

[still root]

Guys i have a question i worked on photoshop to make some logos, but i don't know who is the better one to make if it was the illustrator or the photoshop?

[solid jasper]

Vector graphics are created using mathematical formulas, allowing them to be resized without losing quality. This scalability ensures they can be used in an array of mediums, (e.g. print, web, video). This ensures the brand graphics always looks sharp and professional. Adobe Illustrator is a professional-level design tool used to create and edit vector graphics. Thus, a professional designer would choose Illustrator to create the graphic(s) for the logo.

[worn reef]

I loved Firefly when it first came out. Not so much now. The changes have made the quality horrible. It use to be my go to but not any more.

[livid cobalt]

illustrator is for vector graphics so it will be better

[calm portal]

It depends also a little bit on how you want to use the Logo. If its only for a quick Mockup or so you can use Photoshop, Firefly, Adobe Express, etc. BUT as said the better way f you want to produce better/good quality Logos that also can be used for print, etc. Illustrator would maybe the better choice on the long run. You also can make a first Logo in Photoshop and later reproduce it in Illustrator (with more work of course) but its always possible.

[calm portal]

You can always put your ideas how and why it would work better in the community forum if you want. https://community.adobe.com/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/idea-adobe-firefly

[still root]

I work on Photoshop for graphic designs and logos. Still, I saw some videos of people making logos on Illustrator and I want to try because it is more professional and easier. I will follow your tip guys. Big thx

[solid jasper]

Proper logos are designed as vector graphics with well-defined shapes, iconography and/or text treatments. They should be designed to work in one color on a plain background. Generally black on white. This is because logos often need to be used in a variety of situations where full-color, multi-color and gradations won't work, e.g. like a logo printed in one color, etched in glass, etc. Anything that differs from that, like a continuous tone image with photographic qualities, soft strokes, sketches, painterly or special effects are illustrations and **not **proper logos. While you can mock things up in apps like Firefly, Photoshop, or Adobe Express, a proper, professional logo is created (as vector graphics) in Adobe Illustrator.

[solid jasper]

The prompt coherency and image quality has actually gotten better by leaps and bounds so this take on the app is a bit confusing to me. :)

[worn reef]

I wish it were that simple. I use to get great outcomes from the prompts. Now the faces are totally distorted when you use the option upscale option the faces are worse.
On a positive note. I went back this morning and I’m tried creating a virtual space and it works perfectly. I guess just no people 🌺

[solid jasper]

How well faces are rendered generally depends on how close they are / how much of the image they take up. Larger faces are rendered in better detail. This is a problem with ALL generative models. Not just Firefly.

[worn reef]

In the beginning, I never encountered that issue with Firefly. I believe some of the other generators have added features that enhance their performance as it relates to distortions. I have now discovered a new use for Firefly and will utilize it to fulfill those specific needs.

[solid jasper]

Firefly doesn't have the notion of 'Negative Prompts' as other services do. You could try to upscale and then use Gen Fill in an attempt re-render those areas. But as I said, I constantly experience malformed faces when they're small in the frame. I don't see that as a Firefly issue but an issue with all diffusion models.

Welcome aboard! (Bienvenido)

[silver trout]

what are they in short sentences?

[solid jasper]

There are too many to list. Also, I'm not here to discuss or promote Midjourney.

Firefly is trained on ethically-sourced data and not anything that can be scraped from the Internet. It has a Composition/Structural Reference feature that makes it easy to control the design/composition/layout of generated pixels.

Firefly is part an entire eco-system of computer graphics tools that can be used together to create almost anything in the print, web, and video mediums.

Midjourney renders beautiful images. There is no question about that. It can generate images in almost any genre and style. It has a particularly powerful model for generating anime. Where they procure their training data, I don't think anyone knows as its proprietary information. Another issue with that service is: to generate images privately, you have pay a particularly high monthly subscription fee... to the tune of $60/month. Otherwise, everything you create is potentially visible to anyone with access to the service.

For a comparable monthly fee, you can get [almost] every app Adobe has. Not just Firefly. Also Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects, Premiere, etc etc.
(I say almost because Adobe Substance 3D suite has its own subscription.)

I don't want to beat up on Midjourney. I like their service and it has a lot of utility. But I'm not here discuss competing services so I think I should leave it at that. Hope this helps.

[scenic sluice]

Hey everyone, hope everyone is having a good day! I am a graphic designer and want to start utilizing ai to create some cool ideas. I came across a tiktok where some key would make an outline of a logo of some sort and have ai use the logo shape but make an image, I was wondering if anyone would know how to do that

To further clarify my question basically what this talented artist did in the video.

[ocean pond]

@scenic sluice This looks like a combination of Illustrator, Firefly, and Photoshop. Nothing too special.

[scenic sluice]

Yeah i know haha I was just wondering the paramaters within the ai because I seen the artist used high contrast colors to possibly help the ai, I just didnt know the process as far as the AI. I know what they did on ps and illustrator

[ocean pond]

@scenic sluice Make some shapes and upload as a comp reference in Firefly to get exactly what you want.

[scenic sluice]

Ok cool thats exactly what I was looking for ! Thanks so much! so basically make my art and upload as composition just to confirm?

[ocean pond]

@scenic sluice Yep. We did Airplane skins in the past and I used this as a comp reference to get what I needed.

[scenic sluice]

Cool thanks so much, I just want to start using ai to speed up the design workflow. most of my custom stuff are hand drawn in procreate then sent to photoshop to finalize. firefly makes it so much easier

[solid jasper]

Choose an image with a strong contour to use as a Composition Reference. Then pair that with a prompt to describe whatever, colors, textures/materials. You can create nearly infinite variations. See: https://www.behance.net/gallery/208035523/Adobe-Max-2024

Is this a moderator in this server or is this in regards to your previous comment. We don't have a clue as to what the issue at hand is, you joined and immediately started name calling as your first message here. You've been asked by multiple moderators in multiple servers not to tag people without context.

[honest quiver]

You'll have to take your issue up with the moderators in the server where your issues occurred, instead of joining other servers to voice complaints. I have no idea what you're referring to, to be honest, but we're not keen on having people tagged in the chat and called names without context. Many of the moderators are involved in other adobe discords and have seen you arbitrarily tagging other users, seemingly at random. There is no main admin responsible for all of the discords, there is only the staff in each individual discord

[torpid orbit]

Who can help me? I can describe the situation as a whole here. Yesterday I registered in ADobe. Today I wanted to work with Adobe Firefly but it won’t start. Just a black screen and only a button for discord. There is not even an attempt to log into my own account. I tried with VPN - it doesn't work. Without it, it also does not work in my country. From another device - it works, although my account (PC) is currently on my laptop and nothing works for me, literally at all. Plaese help me 😦

[ocean pond]

@torpid orbit This issue sounds as if Adobe is not available in your country. We have no control over that. Also, if you will be part of this Discord, please clean up your profile.

[torpid orbit]

do you mean status?

[ocean pond]

@torpid orbit You got it.

If you want "everything" to be exactly the same except for the color, I would do the color adjustments with Photoshop. If you try to prompt for that, the results may vary too much. However, I'm not sure of your expectations.

Hello. I would like to ask you a question. Are there any words that should not be entered in adobe firefly? Are there any rules that state this? I am Japanese and am not good at English, so I use Google Translate. Please reply in simple English.

[solid jasper]

There are restricted words. However, there is no public list of banned words that you can refer to. Sorry.

[shadow bough]

Is it not possible to generate an image if it contains restricted words?

Also, is it allowed to create and distribute postcards using images generated with Adobe Firefly as backgrounds and adding text etc. using editing software? Also, are there any rules that state what usage is not allowed?

[solid jasper]

If you are a subscriber to a Creative Cloud plan, you can use generated content. Trial and beta users do have some restrictions on commercial use.

[solid jasper]

If the prompt contains restricted words or images, the generation will probably show an error and fail.

[shadow bough]

Does this mean that the trial version can basically be used in any way as long as it is not for commercial use?

[solid jasper]

I think the free accounts, Firefly images are generated with a "Adobe Firefly" watermark. Technically, you're supposed to leave that intact.

[shadow bough]

Thank you for letting me know.

Is it okay under the terms and conditions to import images generated by AI into Canva, etc., add text, etc., create materials, and distribute them to an unspecified number of people? If anyone knows, please answer.

By the way, I am using the trial version.

[shadow bough]

Is the question I'm asking a difficult question?

I would be happy if someone could tell me the answer...

[wild drum]

You can use the results you get from Firefly with the watermark as you want, even commercially, but you cannot remove or hide the watermark.

If you click your profile icon on the webpage at the top right, then settings you should be able to switch languages, you can see if Japanese is available there

Also not a difficult question but this periode usually a low activity one this time of day

[shadow bough]

@wild drum Thank you for explaining this in an easy-to-understand manner. It was a time of little activity. understood.

[crystal sundial]

Firefly has two responses to restricted words. The first is it will generate after removing restricted words. It says "One or more words may not meet User Guidelines and were removed." In the second case, it will refuse to egnerate the image and give an error.

Is it possible to crop images generated with adobe firefly so that the watermark does not disappear and use them as SNS profile pictures?

[astral jolt]

I think Stian previously let you know that you should not remove it. Upgrading to premium or else will cover your usage watermark-free

[shadow bough]

Is it also a bad idea to crop to prevent the watermark from disappearing?

[astral jolt]

If part of it does not make it though profile picture crop, that is fine. Intentional cropping for the sake of hiding is not.

[shadow bough]

If the watermark is hidden because it is used as a profile picture, does that mean there is no problem?

[astral jolt]

It is fine, most of the crop tools do not gives you a lot of control over it.

Does anyone have any advice for the best way to make an image have a transparent background around tricky areas like hair? It could be done with quite a bit of time, skill, and care in Photoshop, but are there other options? The manual Photoshop option can be rather tricky, and it could be an issue for people who have low confidence in their image manipulation skills.

@humble tangle 3rd party links are not allowed.

[gentle blaze]

One idea I have had but not tested is generating images with a greenscreen background. I don't know if there would be transparency issues, though. If so, that would leave you with jagged edges. Jagged edges could also be an issue, regardless. I'm not sure what the best way to tackle that would be. I would love to hear people's ideas about tackling jagged edges in these sorts of situations.

And also, again, if anyone has any ideas to share about creating images with transparent backgrounds around tricky ideas like hair, I would really appreciate it.

Another thing I thought of is to just remove this as an issue by using a white background. Then, just give the image a bit of a white border effect (after removing the white background). But I would like to hear about ways that don't involve using a border around the edges.

Also, I am being extra considerate regarding this discussion due to the many different situations in which images could be used. Thank you.

(By the way, as you may have guessed, graphic design is not my best trait. lol However, I am far from inexperienced.)

[sharp tulip]

photoshop has "select subject" that seems to work well if you don't want to use the more manual approach.

[gentle blaze]

I have found myself with cases where there is still the hair issue, unfortunately. But thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it.

[ebon sable]

I'd suggest generating using "on a white background" at the end of the prompt. Then use Photoshop or Adobe Express to remove the background.

The Photoshop server would have some great insights for helping you. There's been a lot of improvements to selections over the past few years. Try looking into the Refine Edge Brush when masking, I use it for a lot of textured or feathery hair styles.

https://www.adobe.com/learn/photoshop/web/select-hair?locale=en&learnIn=1

[gentle blaze]

I did mention that in my message and mentioned the possible issue of jagged edges. Do you believe this is not an appropriate place to discuss this?

[ebon sable]

Jagged edges in the generated image or in the selection?

[gentle blaze]

Following removing the background:

"One idea I have had but not tested is generating images with a greenscreen background. I don't know if there would be transparency issues, though. If so, that would leave you with jagged edges. Jagged edges could also be an issue, regardless. I'm not sure what the best way to tackle that would be. I would love to hear people's ideas about tackling jagged edges in these sorts of situations."

Replace greenscreen with white background.

Thanks for the link, by the way. I have bookmarked it to check out when I get the chance.

I'm basically really looking for the easiest, quickest way to get perfect results every time and for every situation. I am not sure if such a thing exists, though.

[ebon sable]

If you're getting jagged edges after clearing the selection, I recommend adding some Feathering and Smoothing to the selection in addition to the Refine Edge Brush. Here's a screenshot with those options indicated, and the area in red is currently what would be selected. The result is semi-transparent soft pixels throughout the hair instead of jagged/hard ones.

(In Photoshop)

It took me just a few clicks and it's a good result with minimal cleanup. However, I don't deal much with photo editing these days so I do think the Photoshop server would be the best place to get more experienced support since this is more for the steps after generating an image.

[gentle blaze]

I've not tried it myself much yet, aside from just testing the one-click method. And I've also been unsubscribed for a year. Thanks for the advice. I know AI and tech, in general, are advancing at a very fast pace.

How would you personally define "good," if you don't mind? Could I see the image? Again, I am being extra considerate regarding this discussion due to the many different situations in which images could be used.

I also know there are some situations (some as merchandise printing, for example) where transparent pixels can be an issue. But then, you get the jagged edges issues. It's a cache 22 sort of thing.

[ebon sable]

If you're looking for a free alternative, try Adobe Express: https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/remove-background

Here's a zoomed in snippet of my 1-minute effort in Photoshop. There isn't an instant and perfect solution for all uses, but you can get skilled and efficient with the tools to get the results that work best for you.

You can bring your Firefly images into Express easily through the edit dropdown

[gentle blaze]

I am fully subscribed to CC All Apps again. I also just edited my message to add:

"I also know there are some situations (some as merchandise printing, for example) where transparent pixels can be an issue. But then, you get the jagged edges issues. It's a cache 22 sort of thing."

Again, I'm basically really looking for the easiest, quickest way to get perfect results every time and for every situation. I am not sure if such a thing exists, though.

And so, I'm looking for the easiest workarounds following a one-click method.

[ebon sable]

That's all I can suggest then. I encourage you to keep improving your skills and looking for new solutions, there's a lot of communities and creatives that can help.

[gentle blaze]

The whole reason I began these thoughts a few weeks ago, by the way, was due to merchandise printing. Maybe I am worrying a bit too much. Or perhaps I am just trying to keep up-to-date with everything that has been improving and evolving.

When you do things professionally, time is an extremely valuable resource.

Once more, thank you for your time and input. I really appreciate it.

[honest quiver]

Gleeful provided you a variety of fast and effective solutions, but it depends on your definition of perfection in the context of the work you're creating, scale, output, budget, etc... You're not going to find a one-click solution that can handle every single situation flawlessly. These are certainly much faster ways to get you started than masking the hair by hand though, and how far you take it depends on the project budget and needs, I don't think anyone here can answer that question for you.

[gentle blaze]

Yes, they did—and I made sure to express my appreciation for their input. As for the difficulty, that was the whole point of the subject. The idea was to encourage a discussion where people could share what they know about easy solutions to different situations. Is this not a suitable place for that type of chat?

When it comes to things like budget and resources, I’m currently a one-man army developing my brand. I’ve had teams in the past, but right now, it’s just me. I’m always eager to learn more and being able to achieve more. That said, I’ve gone through a lot personally, to the point that I had to put the brand on hold. Fortunately, most of my audience understands, and will appreciate the day I return to making daily (or nearly daily) content.

Right now, my brand is only on YouTube (and social media, though just for sharing basic things—I’m not actively growing my audience there). Over the years, I’ve explored different aspects of content creation. At one point, I joined a website as my brand and wrote articles under that identity. I’ve also done some independent writing. I’ve never had my own website, but that’s a long-term goal when the time feels right.

My brand has the potential to branch into a lot of areas—long-form videos, short-form videos, publishing on different platforms, written articles, infographics, images that communicate ideas, podcasts, books, magazines, merchandise, and more. I also could create a separate brand or brands that are related to my current one.

But for now, I’m essentially starting fresh (not literally—just making my return). I’m working solo with a low budget until things pick up, and my focus is on creating frequent YouTube content. I also plan to start selling merch very soon—and doing this maybe every month or every two months. In the past, I’ve always used the website Spring to handle production and sales.

I currently have a design I love, but I still need the background removed around the hair. I have not really tried myself yet, though. Instead, I've just been trying to research as much as possible regarding what is currently available, as I have had a lot of catching up to do. In the past, I have asked friends who are professional artists and such to help create designs for me. As I said, graphic design is far from my best trait. I am still very experienced with it, though. But I also struggle with my confidence regarding it, too, as I know it is not one of my strong points. However, YouTube basically requires being able to do... everything. Of course, how much effort goes into what you are doing depends on various different factors. But, for example, my current logo is not so bad, I think.

I am not sure if I am allowed to ask this, but if anyone wouldn't mind trying to help me with removing this particular background, that would be very much appreciated. However, as I said, I've not really tried myself yet. I've just been trying to research as much as possible regarding what is currently available. I think even though transparency can create a glow effect on merch, it would be fine, and not having anti-aliasing can have its own issues.

One point about the design, though, is that it isn't on a green screen-type background. It's on a fake transparent background (the way transparency is often depicted with the checkerboard background). I have created so many other designs trying to replicate the feeling I got when I saw it and got hit with that sudden feeling, and I said to myself, hmm... that's actually something that could work with various things. But so far, I haven’t been able to match that initial spark.

[astral jolt]

@gentle blaze I have to ask you to remove an image as it's clashing with the rules of the community discord. Otherwise I have to take down the whole message

[gentle blaze]

No problem. Sorry about that.

[astral jolt]

What you are describing there about your brand is definition of branding basically. About the request, photoshop discord might be the place to gain some additional hints, though rules remain the same there. As I recall masking and using refining edge along shifting the edge does it (which may already be mentioned). For altering the image for the purpose of altering the light you have to do some additional brush or color adjusting work

https://discord.gg/adobephotoshop

[gentle blaze]

So, the rule is that requests are not allowed on either server - is that correct?

[astral jolt]

Depends, it's not a written rule but we are eager more to help you learn how it's done over doing it for you (or anyone for that matter). I am not sure how you request help if the image is clashing with community rules

[gentle blaze]

I am confused. Was it the image itself? If so, what was the issue with it?

[wild drum]

For anyone not that into anime, the image can be perceived as pornographic and NSFW

[gentle blaze]

...wha...? That's so offensive to East/Southeast Asian countries and people outside those countries who like the style. It was an image depicting censorship, too - hence the tape across the mouth. So, it's also quite ironic.

[wild drum]

I was not talking about the style, just that particular image, and why I believe it was removed.

Messages are often lost when the context is missing.

[gentle blaze]

But you did say: "For anyone not that into anime"

Anyway, I believe you are just trying to help and are not a mod. A mod's input right now would be very helpful.

It was just an image of an anime character with tape across their mouth. There was also literally "zero" exposed skin or anything like that.

[honest quiver]

We're not discouraging conversation about removing the background on images. I just don't know how much more we can be of help until you try some of the removal techniques on the firefly website, photoshop, and/or express, and see what if any adjustments need to be made and we can try to help from there. We don't take requests here, but we're happy to help you through the task if you need help although the photoshop or express discords would be able to offer more specific help with those tools. As for the censorship, I didn't see the image, but we have a wide audience here, including younger students, so we have to be a more strict, if there's some way to crop to the area you're having difficulty with, then I'd probably recommend that.

[gentle blaze]

There was nothing to crop, though. The image was exactly as described. Just an image of an anime character with tape across their mouth. There was also literally "zero" exposed skin or anything like that.

Thanks for clarifying the "no requests" rule.

Would any mods like to see the image via a PM for further context?

[honest quiver]

I'm not really sure it's important for us to see the image, have you tried any of the techniques suggested? https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/quick-actions/select-subject.html with the refine edge brush, or https://www.adobe.com/express/feature/image/remove-background ?

[gentle blaze]

The point was to clarify why the image broke the server's (and Photoshop's server's) rules.

A mod, Katrina, told me: "I am not sure how you request help if the image is clashing with community rules."

Commmunity expert, Stian, then said: "For anyone not that into anime, the image can be perceived as pornographic and NSFW. "

And so, I am very confused about what images you allow and why. As I keep saying, it was just an image of an anime character with tape across their mouth. There was also literally "zero" exposed skin or anything like that.

[honest quiver]

sorry you're not happy with the decision, we're happy to help you solve your problem if you run into issues with the tools mentioned

[gentle blaze]

I want to clarify that my concern isn’t about being 'not happy' with the decision. I fully respect the rules, and I appreciate the effort that goes into keeping the server running smoothly. My question was simply about understanding the specific reasoning behind why the image was removed. The explanation I received was that ‘for anyone not into anime, the image can be perceived as pornographic and NSFW,’ which left me confused, as the image contained no explicit content—just an anime character with tape across their mouth.

I completely understand that moderation decisions need to account for a wide audience, and I don’t want to challenge the rules. However, I believe this could be relevant to other users as well. Anime is a globally recognized art style, and different cultural perspectives might affect how content is interpreted. If perception plays a role in content moderation, it would be helpful to have clearer guidance on how best to navigate that so users can better understand what is and isn’t acceptable.

Again, I appreciate the work that goes into maintaining this community and just want to ensure I’m fully aware of the expectations so that I, and others, can follow them properly. Any additional clarification would be greatly appreciated.

[honest quiver]

I'm not really sure what more to add here, a moderator thought the image was nsfw, and so did a community expert and it was removed, its up to the moderator's discretion to remove an image. It was not a personal attack. It likely would have been removed regardless due to the fact that we don't take requests here.

No one has a problem with specific art styles, such as anime, there's an option for it in firefly on the web, and we know that the censorship is a hot topic with the firefly community, some people thinking it goes to far, others thinking not far enough. We've had users in the community complain about inappropriate images shared here in the past, so we try to be careful.

[gentle blaze]

Understood. The official stance by Adobe's Firefly and Photoshop servers is that it was deemed "NSFW," and that's that. Thank you for clarifying. That is all I wanted. And I have given everyone a fair chance to comment on the situation. But you have basically said there is nothing to add. Thank you once again.

[gentle blaze]

This one should be fine for Adobe's guidelines. It's very different. ;)

[honest quiver]

[scenic sluice]

Hey everyone. I am making like a sports trading card themed poster design and I came across some sample signatures online that I really liked. If I wanted to put the name of something as a signature that matches the same style of the sample signature I found would the best way to do that be ai? I know it wouldn’t be perfect but I want to be able to visualize the signature using the style from the sample I seen and get some inspiration to draw one out that looks similar

[sharp tulip]

So are you asking how to use AI to forge a signature? That sounds like it could be super abusable in the wrong hands.

Generally I’ve also found AI to be very hit and miss with long strings of text.

[scenic sluice]

No not to forge that would be illegal haha perhaps I worded it wrong

Essentially I found one of those content creators who makes signatures and I like the style of typography they used but they made the signature with a different name. I’m looking to essentially use their typography style and create my own signature using a different name

I really don’t know how to explain it I just figured I’d ask here because firefly is capable of many things haha. Sorry if the way I worded it came out wrong

Long story short I want the ai to take an original image and use it as an inspiration to generate me more images of a signature similar to that style so I can get ideas on writing a custom one

@scenic sluice you'd probably have better luck sketching out ideas based on the things you like about the signature. Generally they're pretty loose and gestural so I don't think accuracy really matters in this case

[fathom pewter]

Hello people

[fathom pewter]

Hi Jack.

[merry tangle]

Is anybody encountering this issue today? I am trying to create some people, and they are not turning out well at all, despite my prompts.

[wild drum]

It subjectively feels like a loss in quality, and the bad quality seems to get more prominent with larger groups of people

I get portraits that seems perfect, then some where something is off like this

Then adding more people seems to further deteriorate the result

[merry tangle]

Thank you, I had 5-7 people in the prompt and it looked awful.

[wild drum]

It has always had issues with more complex prompts, but the images above are like «People gathered around a picknick table in the winter» so I feel thats something it’s been handling okey before

[ocean pond]

Why do I think we are looking at photos from @wild drum weekend?

[wild drum]

Sadly its just icy where I live

Every hills a free slide 😂

[merry tangle]

Get out the sand!

[wild drum]

It just melts into to ice 😭

[merry tangle]

We use sand on the roads, and a bit of salt on the walkway.

[wild drum]

The roads usually salted when its not too cold, and gravel is used on walkways. But salt also kills the soil beside the roads so I think they try to use less

But I wished they used salt on the walkways, because right now its warm enough

[wet cradle]

Hi there

[balmy charm]

Trying to decide wether my current mbp is good enough, or if I should return it and drop another 600$ into it for double the memory. I havent gotten hard into the productivity with it yet, so unsure wether 24 will be enough for the foreseeable future or not.

[final goblet]

Transform the image into a realistic motion scene where a guy is striking a pose for an aesthetic photo. The background should remain exactly the same as in the original image. Ensure all elements, including lighting and details, match the original image. Add a subtle effect of smoke emerging from the left side of the frame, seamlessly blending with the scene."

[visual light]

Hello, new to Firefly but have used several other generative AI programs. Im looking for something to "illustrate" a book for my kids/nephews. How does firefly handle recreating the same characters over and over better? When using ChatGPT and changing scenes it always changes the characters too much. I want the same exactly looking characters just doing different things and different backgrounds. Can I make Firefly do this? Thanks in advance!

[severe inlet]

hello, is generative fill fixed on new version and beta versions of photoshop ?

[honest quiver]

@visual light you can try using a combination of style and composition reference but you'll always have differences from generation to generation

@severe inlet the issue from earlier today has been resolved

[severe inlet]

ok thanks 🙂

[visual light]

thanks jack, that is what I was afraid of

[quick dawn]

hello everyone can someone help me find a free playlist or course to learn after effect explainer video ?

[turbid scaffold]

Generated a scene from my past -- Lemonade stand, kids, Queens NY etc -- lots of detail. Used a reference photo of the house I lived in in 1952. The generated scene has a bunch of kinds in a good setting but the kids are very poorly rendered. Just bad. Seems like FireFly struggles with this kind of scene.

[honest quiver]

@quick dawn the video discord is probably a better place for this question, there are folks who are familiar with after effects over there https://discord.gg/adobepremiere

[keen mason]

@turbid scaffold Adobe Firefly is not a Discord bot, please check out https://firefly.adobe.com

[turbid scaffold]

That's where I did it. Came here to talk to humans.

I know I can't haveFireFly generate even a bad picture here! LOL

[sharp tulip]

i think you are oddly replying to a bot?

[solid jasper]

Faces lose detail and coherence the smaller they are or further away they are in distance inside the image.

[turbid scaffold]

Yes -- that's what I saw.

MJ is better but not good.

[solid jasper]

You could try to get the overall scene/composition the way you want it. Then you could try scaling it up. Then using Generative Fill. Paint over a face and prompt just for a "detailed face"

[turbid scaffold]

Yet I've gotten really good portraits.

All in FF?

[solid jasper]

All diffusion models struggle rendering detail into small areas. There aren't enough pixels there usually to approximate details.

To use Generative Tech, you need to think of this as a process of "progressive refinement" and not trying to render things in a one-shot.

[turbid scaffold]

Can't be a metter of pixels -- A photo will render a small/distant face just fine.

[solid jasper]

OK. Don't listen to me. I don't know what I'm talking about. heh

[turbid scaffold]

Yes -- progressive refinement I guess -- would you use the output from one session as a reference photo for another?

[solid jasper]

Maybe.

Sometimes you can prompt for something. Get a rough idea and the put another image in as a "Composition Reference" and use that to drive the image a bit closer to the goal.

[sharp tulip]

i'd think with new tech like this, photoshop knowledge still is king. expecting to generate everything with one go seems kind of unlikely.

[turbid scaffold]

Don't be offended -- just applying what I know about pixels etc -- if a photo can provide small detail why not a rendered image? I imagine it could be a matter of time -- these generations happen fast.

[solid jasper]

Correct. Mostly, you're not going to get perfection in one shot.

[solid jasper]

This isn't a photo... first off.

You're not using a sensor to capture light.

You asking a machine to 'predict' where pixels should be displayed in a bitmap. Completely different.

[sharp tulip]

im honestly kind of amazed it even does what it does.

[solid jasper]

Image gen models are trained on data at a certain resolution. For instance, let's say its 1024pixels square as an example. Trying to draw a face into 64x64 pixel area probably won't work because the algorithm doesn't know how to render a face into a block that small. However, when you upscale the image and render the face into a larger area, you'll most likely get better results.

[turbid scaffold]

Result should be similar. Anyway -- thanks for the advice -- I have gotten improved results by refining my prompts based on results. I was hopping FF would do a better job -- a few versions back it gave me some really good images -- they were like illustrations tho -- not photo realistic -- but very good. That capability seems to have been subsumed by more photorealistic output except its pretty bad at this point.

[solid jasper]

I'm over-simplifying a lot but... yeah.

[sharp tulip]

even if you had an image at 1024 pixels square then scaled it down to 64x64 there would be a pretty big loss in quality as photoshop tries to interpolate which pixels to keep at that size.

[solid jasper]

Prompts won't do it alone but, hey... you do whatever you like. Good luck. :)

[turbid scaffold]

So not trained on high res photos? I've generated "photos" that are hard to tell from photos. But my prompts were simple leaving lots to FF. Anyway the resolution of a 35mm frame would be good enough.

[solid jasper]

Firefly only generates at 2k... 2048x2048. You'll never get the quality of a DSLR. Let alone a 35 mm film frame. :)

You could upscale a generated image to near DSLR size but it will never have that type of quality. It's just not there yet. You zoom in and its easy to tell when something is generated versus a "real" photo.

[turbid scaffold]

DSLRs today go way beyond 355mm. Good to know about 2048x2048. For screen viewing that's enough.

True -- anyway -- thanks -- signing off now.

[solid jasper]

It'll get there someday. Where you can generate a 12K image in a few seconds. Right now, we're at 2k and it takes a bit. :)

"Way beyond" depends on the quality of sensor in the camera but I realize they are advanced. Sometimes real film exposures can capture things digital sensors can't but that is a topic for a different server, probably. :)

Say I wanted to cartoonize a picture I have of a car. Would it be possible to achieve a result similar to this hand drawn/toonsketch style? I just want to see if AI is capable of this instead of me spending hours on drawing. I know it wouldnt be exact as the irl car reference and I do not mind making tweaks myself. I want to use it as a vector car art

[vast bridge]

Vector style is one of the effect you may find, and you may add additional descriptors as, cartoon, comic book or alike. If you are looking for vector graphics it's better to attempt creating it in illustrator using text to vector feature

[latent walrus]

can i adjust in image art style with gen fill

hello

[astral jolt]

I find working with text to image, while using image as composition reference and using prompt that supports it slightly better. Neither are still perfect for a task you are mentioning

[latent walrus]

i have a question about firefly if anyone could helo me send me a dm

[ocean pond]

@latent walrus Ask here. Others may have the same question.

[latent walrus]

ok cool is there anyway i can adjust an image art style in generative fill for example i know its prob not a big deal but i want to see if gen fill can change this image to look more like this one in the art style and i know its not that big of a change but idk when it comes to art it is what it is

[ocean pond]

@latent walrus Put the first image in as a Comp reference and the 2nd one, as a Style Reference. You need to play with the amount sliders to get what you want.

[latent walrus]

hold on can you do that in photshop

[ocean pond]

@latent walrus You can try. Firefly or Ps.

[latent walrus]

is firefly available as a web browser

[ocean pond]

Yep. https://firefly.adobe.com/

[latent walrus]

ok ill try give me a sec ill get back to you i wanted to do it in photoshop with gen fill

[latent walrus]

after i add both images what do i set as the promts

[ocean pond]

Describe the scene you want.

[latent walrus]

ok i have an idea ill add the first image to midjourney and do /describe then get that prompt and put it in firefly

[solid jasper]

A couple things about the Describe feature... It tends to write very long prompt suggestions and they are designed to work with Midjourney. Using them with Firefly may or may not work out as you might hope. Also, Describe can sometimes include brand names, artist names, trademarks, etc that will not work in Firefly. I'd keep those things in mind when bringing the text from Describe over to Firefly.

Can you screenshot or screen record for us? (as share link I think might still be broken)

[astral jolt]

You can try loosing up the composition strength a tad, but I think the size and length of type is the issue here

[honest quiver]

I just think that the text is too long, this may be a case for text effects in adobe express, or you can try generating each word individually

[fluid lintel]

@astral jolt @honest quiver 😦

[crystal sundial]

What do you want it to look like?

[fluid lintel]

bad, white and wolk should be switched

[crystal sundial]

You want "Egg" to be yolk yellow?

[fluid lintel]

yup

[astral jolt]

Doubt you'd pull it wit generation alone, better turn to composing. This is close to what we have been suggesting, some multi yolk as it happens sometimes ir.

Note, when troubleshooting as such, you may create a post to #1174140002695905451

[crystal sundial]

Another option is to use text effects in Adobe Express:

[sharp tulip]

I think your choice in font will greatly effect your prompt. i'd look for something a bit more rounded and "yolk-like". I did this text in photoshop and used it for compositioin and it seemed to get closer to what you are trying to get. I think it will take some random fiddling with to dial it in(and probably an even better choice in font)

[ocean pond]

@opal bough We found out yesterday, so news to us also.

[opal bough]

testing.. the model is okay, video can be very overstaturated. its not the best video model, but it is a good one (that is released for people)

as a comparison, here is veo 2 (Only for beta right now)

so my thought.. adobe is a good model to use, has helpful features, and is faster, quality is okay, but can be overstaturated. 6.3/10

[limber spruce]

i'm currently trying out firefly txt2vid, but now i get the message that my “free quota” is empty. that's okay, but i still have 980 credits left with my creative cloud subscription. why can't i use txt2vid?

[steep dove]

Shouldnt this be included when you have ALL apps??

[honest quiver]

currently it does seem that the limited time use is for 2 generations with text to video and in order to continue to use the premium features (listed in the link I've included) you'll need to purchase a separate firefly subscription, standard/plus or premium/pro, as outlined here https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html this is similar to how the subscription for substance 3d currently works

[steep dove]

No thank you, I already pay too much for Adobe as is

[limber spruce]

i.e. i can't use the txt2vid function of firefly with my creative cloud subscription (for which i pay 50€ per month!) but have to buy an extra subscription (+11€ per month)?

[steep dove]

I was excited to get something from Adobe who only seems to want to screw over their customers and take things away while giving less back. Should have guessed it would be yet another premium to gouge our pockets.

[honest quiver]

yes, that is the case, i know that the moderators on adobe live are gathering feedback for the team on this already in the live chat there, all I can add is that if you have any thoughts please feel free to share them

[limber spruce]

that's greedy. there's no other way to put it. adobe's greed for money cannot be surpassed

i will not buy an extra firefly subscription.
even if i needed it, i won't buy it as a matter of principle. not from adobe. not with adobe's history (abolishing the purchase option once and packing everything into an overpriced subscription, including cheeky cancellation fees).

too bad, i was really looking forward to the release of txt2vid. but if that's the price i won't pay it. guaranteed not. i'll stick with txt2img and look for other options for txt2vid/img2vid

(this feedback is welcome to be forwarded)

[honest quiver]

i understand the frustration, I know video is quite a heavy lift in terms of server load so that comes at a cost.

[limber spruce]

i know that. i have already run img2vid models on my own server, which costs a lot more power than txt2img, for example. so i already expected that a video would not cost 1 credit (as with pictures) but (significantly) more. but an extra subscription for that? i wouldn't have thought that. and i think it's cheeky as an extra for a 50 euro/dollar (!!!) subscription.

[cyan crystal]

[north galleon]

Welp.... Adobe released a bunch of new features... bye bye credits! 😂

[steep dove]

That would be great. But, were dealing Adobe here. Hope you wanted to pay for another subscription.

[dark mica]

i just got the email to test the Firefly Video...but after 2 (!) generated Videos i should pay....Sorry Adobe...i am a subscriber for over ten years of the Creative Cloud. And regarding other VideoGenerators the costs are too high...20 Videos (each 5 seconds..in earlybird discount) Everybody who is generating Videos knows that you need at least 5 to 10 videos to get something out that is the video you were looking for. So i am pretty disappointed of Firefly Video...😒

[sharp tulip]

So we can finally share video created with firefly video now?(with out submitting it for review)?

[honest quiver]

yes @sharp tulip

[sharp tulip]

Neat

[shy pecan]

why can I only create two videos with the creativecloud subscription? Do you have to buy it separately or what?

[astral jolt]

Yes, you'd have to opt for separate subscription. Check details here

[rare dagger]

yea @shy pecan same problem here, why do we have to do a sperate subscription

[sharp tulip]

probably so people who dont really utilize the feature wont have to bare the brunt of all of the costs.

[rare dagger]

wow so basically 20 videos for $10 dollars a month?

[sharp tulip]

yep, or i guess 8.34 per month if you go yearly.

i forget what i paid for runway ml, but i want to say it was simular

i'm not sure if its designed for people to get separately from adobe cc or if its only an addition to it

[rare dagger]

So for the loyal people who pay for subscription, they want to make them pay again for firefly video.-- thats terrible

[subtle moon]

Bruh, I went over to Adobe FIrefly after hearing about the video model release, and despite not having used Firefly in over half a year and never ever making anything that broke TOS, for some reason there's a red banner saying "You no longer have access to the free Firefly plan due to misuse. Switch to a paid plan to resume."??? I would love to know how I supposedly "misused" Adobe Firelfy as I know for a fact that I haven't. Probably another marketing ploy by Adobe to suck more money from their victims' pockets 😔

[wild drum]

I’ve seen this happen to people before when the ban has been a mistake. Contact costumer support and they’ll be able to help you

[astral jolt]

Are you referring to video features? @wild drum this might be a translate of complementary credits case

[wild drum]

Thats right! I might have misunderstood with the TOS-part

[rare dagger]

So theres no way around paying again for firefly video. Even if you have a paid subscription to cloud

[sharp tulip]

I'm all for Firefly being its own thing. I don't want my subscription fee's to go all into some guy prompting "frog ninja swings a sword" a hundred times as he tries to create Teenage Mutant Ninja Frogs and result in increasing the price of my subscription.

[honest quiver]

most of the details can be found here https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html although admittedly, it's a lot to read through and digest. Some of the new features, video and audio are considered premium features, all apps subscribers can try these new premium features, and have the option to purchase a separate firefly subscription.

[sharp tulip]

(im not going to say i wouldnt watch Teenage Mutant Ninja Frogs though..)

[reef lintel]

I wanted to make a note on this and say that we've expressed some of this feedback to the team internally and are investigating it as we speak. I think it is definitely fair frustration from subscribers of CC that only having two credits to test when you have other credits available is neither ideal, nor clear without reading a bunch of documentation. I'm hoping I will have something more to share soon but just know that we are discussing this and next steps.

[coarse trellis]

🥲 Just heard about Adobe Firefly Video Beta, but can’t use it without buying a subscription ... great ✅

[sharp tulip]

what i dont like is it states there is currently some discount on the cost of generation? it says 100 credits per second, and its crossed out to say 20 credits per second. So its a 5 second video currently costing 100 credits vs 500 credits possibly later?

[coarse trellis]

🇮 🇩 🇪 🇦
They should “gamify” Adobe Creative Cloud 🎮 , whenever you use an Adobe product, the features, duration, etc, you should earn different amounts of credits 🪙 which you can then use for Firefly.

👍Yes / 👎 No

[sharp tulip]

i want my creative software to be creative software. My game time is spent playing Slay the Spire mods.

[steep dove]

I really wish Adobe would give me a reason to suggest it to others as a product. After years of being a customer. I've yet to experience where they give a crap about the customers instead of finding every way under the sun to charge us more for less. Anyone had fun using Adobe Rush? At one time we could work from the desktop and then switch to the phone and continue to edit. NOPE, not anymore. But you will still pay the same price.

[sharp tulip]

Which product though? Photoshop is the standard, but the main reason i get adobe CC for After Effects. I have fun dabbling in Character Animator. however.

[loud timber]

i was about to write now how happy i am that i just got access too but once i finished reading your message, i also saw the message about buying further subscription :( very sad.

[coarse trellis]

At one point, Life has turned into a Subscription model. ...

[loud timber]

i maybe can understand another subscription if they want to cover hosting costs or whatever
what i dont understand is why to give exactly 2 prompts and without any good visible warning about that prior?
then at least i wouldnt waist my "2 test prompts" on something useless [i just wanted to test how fast it will generate]
but still... 2 is... "too little"
hehe, get it...

[sharp tulip]

i do wish adobe products were single purchase items again with the ability to purchase an upgrade as new features hit that you want. Generative stuff should be the subscription model. It's just a constant use of resources.

2 prompts? how many credits do you get with your adobe cc subscription

[loud timber]

those were 2 firefly video prompts, not images

images i get 1000 tokens

1 image - 1 token iirc

so in photoshop it will take 3 since it generates 3 variants

right?

[sharp tulip]

oh, honestly i have possibly misunderstood this whole time. i assumed the 1k credits were a pool of firefly generated effects. video and images are separate?

[loud timber]

i am now on firefly video generator page and i have this

What you get:

2,000 monthly generative credits for video and audio

• Generate up to 20 5-second videos
• Translate up to 6 minutes of audio and video

yeah, still doesnt sound too much. 20 videos per month

[sharp tulip]

ive seen this, but how does that relate to adobe cc credits

[loud timber]

yeah, there u get those 2000 tokens

or 7k on the right side

read after "buy now" button

[sharp tulip]

yes, but im not talking about the Firefly, or firefly pro. im talking about just default Adobe CC

[honest quiver]

Some of the new features, video and audio are considered premium features, all apps subscribers can try these new premium features, and have the option to purchase a separate firefly subscription. You can find the details here https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html but also see this message from the team #community-chat message

[sharp tulip]

its far too early in the day for me to explore it really now, so i just came here to find out whats being said so far.

[astral jolt]

Variations are not counted as separate generations.

[sharp tulip]

so to sum up, Adobe CC users get 2 generated videos a month is what you are saying?

[loud timber]

i think even those 2 were just for demo purposes. like "one-time"

[astral jolt]

What we have been experiencing with Video and complementary generations, they were not affecting the balance. I'd call for patience as we get more clarification as Corey suggested earlier.

[loud timber]

i just wanted to share info, so that person dont need to "research" the link you shared

:)

[astral jolt]

Sorry 😅 I am the subject of it too, and wanted to share obeservation

[sharp tulip]

yes a straight forward answer was much appreciated with out having to click links and read documentation for me right now. thank you.

[bold shoal]

Where can we go to see how many generative credits we have left?

[loud timber]

i click top right corner on my profile in adobe app

[bold shoal]

Thank you 🙏

[loud timber]

creative cloud*

[dusty minnow]

What about those with all apps CC plan? Is gen video separate in credits?

Sorry for asking im not at home right now and am curious

[sharp tulip]

Same boat^*

[loud timber]

looks like yes

[cobalt talon]

aww man. i have so many credits but can only make the 2 videos 😭 that sucks

[honest quiver]

the credits aren't separate, but video is considered a premium feature, you get a limited trial with the all apps plan

[loud timber]

Unlimited access to standard image and vector features like Text to Image, Generative Fill and more

so basically ur image tokens become unlimited and tokens are used for videos generation

now i get it

[bold shoal]

Can you link the sales page you see this on?

[loud timber]

it's this thing, i see it inside firefly video generator page

the "buy now'

[bold shoal]

Thanks!

[loud timber]

im helpful today :D

finally not feeling useless

[dusty minnow]

Oh okay so after the trial is up i will need a separate Firefly Pro or Premium subscription?

[honest quiver]

correct

[bold shoal]

I'm curious how expensive this is for them. Is it really so costly that they couldn't give paid Premiere users 10 free videos as a free trial?

[dusty minnow]

I mean it makes sense

Video generation is much more expensive

[bold shoal]

Right

[cobalt talon]

i wish they did more cuz id rather play around a few more times before deciding on buying or not

[bold shoal]

It's $30 for 7,000 credits (which is 70 videos, each 5 seconds long)

That's a lot of videos.
$30 is not terribly expensive, admittedly.

At that rate, it would cost $4.29 for 10 videos.

Is $4.29 REALLY too expensive for Adobe to give out to everyone for free? Free samples drive sales.

[manic parcel]

where can i create videos on this discord? which channel

[astral jolt]

You cannot generate on the discord. https://firefly.adobe.com/ is the place

[bold shoal]

It's not on Discord, and the rules explicitly state that you shouldn't prompt in here as if you can generate in here. It will be considerde spam.

[manic parcel]

thanks

[dusty minnow]

If it was free it would be abused to the moon

With images its easier to tolerate because practically no one will push through thousands of credits after the intial ones run out

[bold shoal]

Right. I would never be so ignorant as to suggest it should be completely free. There are costs involved.

That's why I'm suggesting a free trial with more than 2 video generations.

Given the state of generative AI, 2 free videos is not enough to make me even want to try. I know it'll take more than 2 iterations/tweaks to get anything usable out of it.

If I can't properly try it, I'm not going to buy it.

Free samples work. I don't know why Adobe is creating so much friction to get people on board with this.

If I can see it work, I might buy. But if I wont see it work, I'll stuck to paying the other subscriptions I already have that afford me B roll, and happily wait however many years it takes for this to become more affordable.

[cobalt talon]

yeahhh thats where im at. im not convinced to get it. i wanted to play around with it first but then suddenly i used up my 2 tries that i didnt realize i was limited to

despite... paying for credits that i cant use on this for some reason

im sure theyll work all this out eventually though

[zinc mica]

Hi, I have Creative Cloud subscription, can I use the Firefly image to video? or do I need to buy additional credits?

Also I just wanted to ask, can i use it for commericial purpose? or not yet while it is in beta

[atomic trellis]

Does anyone have any advice on how to prompt Generate video (beta) image to video? I want the woman in the image to stay totally still and only have her hair and palm fronds in the background gently move in the wind. No matter what I type she turns her head or moves an arm and it looks vey unatural.

[astral jolt]

You may use it commercially, however if using creative cloud all/single app plan additional subscription is needed. Check details here

[eternal urchin]

Just got into video beta I've made 2 videos now it's asking me to pay? Is the video not included the same way as the image generator?

[astral jolt]

Some of the practices are shared here. Some hints are shared through-out today Adobe Live livestream

[eternal urchin]

Asking me to pay for Adobe firefly... I always thought it was Included

[astral jolt]

Additional subscription is needed for Adobe Video features, it comes as a separate product. Check more info here

[eternal urchin]

Ah! Well I'd like to have been told that in the welcome email 🤣

[astral jolt]

I worded that poorly *as a separate plan

[eternal urchin]

It's not very well explained having a creative cloud subscription and firefly always being available as part of it, then now video is released the email says nothing about a separate subscription sadly

[atomic trellis]

Feels like quite the bait and switch.

[eternal urchin]

Absolutely

[rocky granite]

Hey guys! Excited to be here!

[fluid lotus]

You have to pay more for adobe firefly??? Ayoo

[eternal urchin]

Only for the video it seems, it's really not well explained

[astral jolt]

Team is aware of it, hopefully we get the updates soon.

[fluid lotus]

Pff like anyone is gonna do that…. Canva has a free option

[atomic trellis]

I've read through that, but don't see anything about negative prompts. Do negative prompts work?

[eternal urchin]

Main confusion is being able to tab along to "video" from image it makes you believe it's all included, but then to get a pop up saying pay monthly for video 😔

[astral jolt]

Fair obervation, noted

[vagrant silo]

Ok, i'll be nicer: Waited months to be able to do 2 video's a month? And you need a separate subscription to be able to do more? What. the. fudge, Adobe

[astral jolt]

I have to check that info, my guess is not but I may be wrong

[atomic trellis]

From what I'm reading online negative prompts do not work and it can actually make it worse because it sees those words, but not the negative.

[eternal urchin]

Yeah 😦

[honest quiver]

Video and audio are considered premium features, all apps subscribers can try these new premium features, and have the option to purchase a separate firefly subscription. You can find all of the details here but it's a long read https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html . Also see this message from the team #community-chat message

[wild drum]

This has been the case for text to image up til today, haven’t seen if they’ve updated it

[eternal urchin]

This is the first time I've ever been made aware of this, I was using Adobe firefly for the odd image generator then advertised video is coming, months later video is here, amazing, then the email says they have it... Amazing and THEN we're told it's a premium subscription...

"Your complimentary generations have ended. Buy a Firefly plan for continued access."

Such a shame as the X2 I tested looked really great, but the creative cloud full subscription is expensive enough, I really hoped this would have been included... Just like the images, 😦

[honest quiver]

I do understand the frustration, most of the mods are also effected by this, however I also know that video is expensive. There was an update posted from the team in that message I shared if you click on it that shows theyre looking into things, but it won't be immediate.

[eternal urchin]

Thanks jack, I'm sure you'll probably see this message another 1000 times haha

[rapid hatch]

Hey... I got a email inviting me to use the beta version of video generation, but when I got to use it, I get this message: "You do not have access to this feature". 😦
Anyone knows who we can "unlock" this?
Thank you!

[twilit wharf]

Have to pay extra to generate videos on top of my creative cloud subscription?

[astral jolt]

It sounds as you are using teams account. If that is the case reach out to admin as they might be opt in/out, or they have to check the updates on plans that came out earlier.

[eternal urchin]

Correct 💯

[astral jolt]

Additional subscription is needed for accessing Adobe Video features, it comes as a separate plan. Check more info here

[twilit wharf]

Can't fork out more money unfortunately. But thanks for the information

[rapid hatch]

Tahnk you Katarina!!! I'll check with them. 🙂

[vagrant silo]

I was literally just thinking this as an idea as well. I can appreciate that Adobe would probs not dish out credit based on how long someone has had a CC sub for (although in a completely fair world, this isn't exactly an unreasonable take either), but based on how long people use the products for should be an alternative way to buy Firefly credits on the go.

[astral jolt]

I can't say if it makes it, but you may post to #1087561412269854840 as there is a high chance of it getting lost between other messages

[vagrant silo]

Cheers will try anyways. Considering I replied to someone else suggesting the same thing, I can only hope there are more people thinking about this on that thread.

[astral jolt]

No gamification suggestions so far

[solid jasper]

I think people would probably try to "game the system" to get free credits. You could set up an AI Agent to run Photoshop Batch processing and Actions while you're asleep. :D

[vagrant silo]

Hmmmmm good point

[rancid trail]

It's a scam that they give you access to the beta launch just to generate two videos and then make you pay. It seemed like they were offering something exciting, but in the end... I'm more and more disappointed with Adobe.

[vagrant silo]

I wrote a few possible solutions in my post on the Features-and-ideas thread 'Gamified Firefly Video Generation Credit Earning Model'

[vast oyster]

yeah. Same.

[honest quiver]

@vast oyster @rancid trail please see this post #community-chat message from the team

[green rapids]

2 videos = 200 credits and that's it. On the other hand, we all have 1000 base credits for everything else.
It's not a good idea to pay your system with credits if your model is so unstable - any model that relies on credits will eventually run out of steam. If you want your system to improve through deep learning, don't use credits, it will go faster. You're already way behind other video models. And you're asking us to pay again.
You're actually testing our propensity to pay or to rebel against paying. Is this a marketing test? I thought we were supposed to help you test a technology?

[golden wadi]

I'm an Adobe admin for my college, and I don't know what to even contact myself about. Serious flop of an invite. 😦

[honest quiver]

you'd need to contact your adobe account manager specifically. We don't know the steps to enable video on your university account, since we can't look into individual accounts here.

[astral jolt]

I had to laugh on my suggestion then, but I couldn't know. There was an updates to plans, this article host information about credits and usage

[green rapids]

It's still a launch failure, on a large scale, and before us there were the alphas testers who didn't have to have credits, so it couldn't be tested, I guess.

[golden wadi]

Definitely. I have 1000/1000 credits, and am the lead admin in our Adobe admin console for managing products and licenses ... and still have no idea of how to get a video made

[vast oyster]

Epic fail

[honest quiver]

@delicate ridge don't post spam

[native forum]

How do the monthly fee and 20 video generations compare to runway? It doesn't seem like a lot when you consider that getting a perfect video result usually takes multiple versions and tests to get it looking right. You could churn through 20 videos pretty quickly. My concern with this type of pricing model is that its function over quality, eg you might get 10 unusable videos because the AI hasn't generated something of acceptable quality yet you're still paying for it. Its a bit like paying ot be the lab rat.

[zinc mica]

I tried prompting image-to-video twice now, and it's generated a video both times. I think I could make even more, I mean i noticed that my credits aren't being deducted. My dashboard shows 854/1000 credits left

[heavy kiln]

Can’t load.
"We can’t process this prompt. You can edit and try again."
It would be helpful if the system could highlight the specific part of the prompt causing the issue. This would make generation smoother, especially for detailed long prompts.

[twilit wharf]

Hell yea

[astral jolt]

As hinted in message you replayed to, if using creative cloud all/single app you'd need to opt for additional plan (keep on referring to it as separate subscription) if you wish to keep on using Video Generative features after you use your complementary runs

[heavy kiln]

It would be great if clicking a generated clip in the timeline played it instantly, eliminating the extra step of hitting the play button. Imo

[eternal plume]

Guys how can i define the time length for a video?

is it only 5 seconds?

[twilit wharf]

I'm tired of adobe squeezing us for our hard earned money on half baked goods

[astral jolt]

@eternal plume 5 seconds is maximum. Suggested workaround is building up sequences and patching them together using Premier or alike

@pure mantle Adobe Firefly is not a Discord bot, please check out https://firefly.adobe.com

[heavy kiln]

Would it be possible to apply camera settings per section or line instead of the entire shot prompt? That way, we could generate different motions within a single clip for more dynamic results.
Also, it would be great to have timeline management that lets users group multiple clips into folders. This would help keep the timeline clean and organized. Imo!

[astral jolt]

I think not, but it would make a good suggestion. Feel free do drop it to #1087561412269854840

[quasi wadi]

I made two and now it's asking me to pay for credits even though I still have 1494 out of 1500 showing in my account. Very odd.

[dark mica]

Thank you for the note. I think people might be ok with a 50% discount when you are already CreativeCloud User. In comparison to all the apps in CC it seems pretty overpriced. Of course it is a different service than the existing apps in CC, but regarding how much competition is happening right now with Video-AI-Models/Services which improve week by week it is really hard to subscribe for another (expensive) Video-AI...although i would like to test it and compare with the other Video-AIs. Excited to see how Firefly-Video will develop in the next months...

Is firefly video not covered under Monthly generative credits?

Okay, so everyone is having this problem. I'll wait for the news then.

anyone else

[honest quiver]

are you on an enterprise plan?

[clever yew]

[wispy jetty]

Offering only two generative videos is a very limited offering. How can you convince users to try the premium version with such a small incentive?

[solid jasper]

They've heard from the community and understand the concerns. It seems they are re-evaluating their policies. Please see this post above: #community-chat message

Perhaps we'll get some more info soon. Please stand by.

[wispy umbra]

I just spoke with support and they told me the monthly generative credits in a Creative Cloud plan won't cover video. Docs aren't updated yet.

[scenic drum]

Can i sell the videos on adobe stock generated by adobe firefly?

[reef lintel]

Just wanted to send another update on this:

We’re still discussing this internally. For one, I want to acknowledge that it was clear the messaging wasn’t as concise as it needed to be for credits, and it should have been more detailed as this went live on what was included and what wasn’t.

Also want to acknowledge the feedback around having 2 test prompts is not ideal. Again, nothing to share on this right now, but we’ve tried to relay that information to see what can be done.

For now, we did post an updated FAQ to hopefully make it easier to understand what is included and what isn’t. Know it’s not the full answer, but hopefully clears up the current situation:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Adobe/comments/1io4y1u/adobe_firefly_announcements_video_model_faq/?rdt=37608

I’ll report back on any further steps or actions based on the feedback we’ve gotten here today, when it becomes available. Thanks for all of the comments today - it is all helpful!

[astral jolt]

I think not (yet) per what I remember was the case with selling images on Adobe Stock, it was not an option during Beta period

[sharp tulip]

oop.. wrong forum

[full swallow]

That sucks...

[nova oak]

hi

[heavy kiln]

I’d say it’s still behind. I have access to all models (as far as I know) and use pro-level prompting. Firefly performs on par with Pika and is close to Sora in handling deformation issues, but in terms of top-tier performance, especially prompt adherence, Hailuo and Veo lead the pack. Its image quality is comparable to Hailuo but doesn’t quite match Veo. Overall, the model still has some ground to cover, good model imo.

Runway used to be my go-to for commercial projects, but that changed when Hailuo and Sora came onto the scene.

[shadow bough]

Hi

What restrictions are there on using videos generated with firefly?

[hard jasper]

Hello everyone! I tried to create a video of a photo that I created a few weeks ago. It's not flawless, but it's a start! Very curiuos what firefly will bring in the near future 😉

[brittle saddle]

Hi ! I would like to play with the custom models, but when I open this space, I've juste the demonstration video…
You know why ?

[broken plank]

hi

[astral jolt]

Training and using custom model is available just with enterprise account

[astral jolt]

In terms of guidelines or complementary credits for Firefly Video?

@broken plank Sorry, since there are no channels where you may post for feedback at this server, I removed your post. Seems like you are in Photoshop community discord, you may post there. I'd gladly comment if you decide to pot to Illustrator discord.

[shadow bough]

I would like to ask about the guidelines.

[brittle saddle]

we have an enterprise account, is there different types of account ?

[astral jolt]

Not for custom models, no. What is the error that you facing again? (bare with me I do not use enterprise acc.)

[astral jolt]

https://www.adobe.com/legal/licenses-terms/adobe-gen-ai-user-guidelines.html
here is what has been known so far

[brittle saddle]

when i'm on this space https://firefly.adobe.com/, i click on the Begin button (in the custom model space), and it open a new window https://firefly.adobe.com/custom-models but in this window i just have a video

[astral jolt]

It's probably introductory video (no access) have you tried seeing it? Let us know

[brittle saddle]

yes i saw it twice or more, and my collegue too

[astral jolt]

I was hoping for like, one time pop-out. Is admin able to navigate you? I'll raise the issue but for time being if this is first time using it see if they have more insight.

[lusty mirage]

guys but do you have to make an addition to your subscription to use t2v or i2v? I have the full package with still 900 credits but it doesn't work and says I need FireFly Pro... wtf???

[shadow bough]

ty

[astral jolt]

Sounds like you are fellow Creative Cloud all app user. We have been granted complementary credits for two runs, for using it further one must opt for separate plan. See (sorry about that jumpy edit)

[quaint shell]

I honestly couldnt believe it, I thought it was a joke. They can keep it - very audacious.

[lusty mirage]

So I pay a full subscription but I can't use the features in Beta unless I pay extra... okay keep your firefly, we'll use the competition

[dark yarrow]

Are you kidding Adobe? Invited to Beta and then have to pay for it? And with standard getting 20 renders of 5 seconds a month? Jeez what were you thinking guys. At least be clear about it in your invite email. Anyway, with those terms, no thank you.

[quaint shell]

I really wouldnt pay a cent for it in it's current state. I understand that generations may cost you money, but honestly your competitors do it far better, and their models are way ahead of yours, even their free versions.

Is there a correlation between the launch of the beta and the fact I cannot generate anything in PS or AI because of 'high demand'?

[astral jolt]

Correct, you'd need to subscribe for one of the suggested plans. As Corey hinted here #community-chat message after receiving user feedback the team will be looking into extending the limit, as for now we are faced with two complementary runs

[quaint shell]

You should state in the email that its a paid beta, because no one can really test with 2 generations. I left feedback and have voiced my opinion here, so will leave it at that, but it left a VERY sour taste in my mouth.

[lusty mirage]

Sorry but with two trials the only feedback I can give is that I can't use it

[astral jolt]

Personally not in charge of sending invites, but point taken. As well as what you posted to #1087561412269854840. We are also subject of it @quaint shell

[astral jolt]

We'll be posting updates as they arrive. Hope for an extension

[pallid sky]

I just want to share my 2 cents, as many i was really stoked for the video model. Reading that it was released i wanted to try it out immediately and wasted my 2 videos on the mobile phone. I still like the way adobe is taking with ethics and commercial safe AI generations. Perfect for the AI Act! But a second subscription to do Videos is a little disappointing being a loyal Adobe loving CC subscriber.

Only Feedback i can give from one of the 2 generated videos is that if you upload a 1:1 picture it would be cool to just center it and extend it depending on the selected orientation.

[autumn vine]

Hi everyone!

As several people, I'm here after the official launch of Firefly Video and was happily surprised as I didn't expect this announcement!

I applied to the "Generative Video (beta)" program, in October 2024, with no luck. I guess my profile didn't match the company expectations or all slots were taken so I patiently waited to get my hands on it. Yesterday was that day.

After 2 tries, I had this pop-up telling me I was already out of credits to generate more videos, which let me perplex. I still decided to pay for an extra and give a chance to this model. You can see one of my generated videos below.

As many here, I really want to give feedback to the team. In the past years, I did that with both Adobe & Behance teams. But at a cost of 100 credits per video, my wallet will be empty at light speed and I can't pay undefinitely. As a long term Adobe user (20+ years) using Creative Clouds daily, something's just feels "off" to me. I'm like a new car customer where the seller show me an outstanding car, open the door & ask me to turn the engine on to hear how unique it sounds & get ready for an epic ride... And that's all! Damn, I don't want to stop here and just want to jump now into this memorable ride to give you my true impressions, what I'd like to see improve, ideas for features or UI improvements. Adobe's company journey also include us, your newcomer & loyal customers.

So, do I want to help the team on Firefly? Yes!
And do I want to give feedback at a regular pace? Yes!
But, can I do it efficiently? Unfortunately, not with the current business model.

Until then, I really appreciate the team effort & hard work and will continue to toy with this new video model, at my tiny scale 😉

[paper frigate]

I was really looking forward to Adobe's take on video generation, but as well the pricing model, even for CC subscriber, as the quality of the videos don't work for me. (the prompt for this video was: A cat drives a race car, dynamic action camera shot, drone footage, close-up of the race car, high-speed lap around a racetrack.)

[sharp tulip]

Did you start with an image? I had a situation kind of like this and I fixed it by specifying the direction it was traveling.

[paper frigate]

it's a text to video generation

[paper frigate]

I'm aware that the first prompt won't always work, but I couldn't test any more due to the 2 clips restriction 😆

[sharp tulip]

Yeah, kind of the way of AI, it rarely gets it right out of the gate.

I really hope they let our current pool of points be used on all of their generative offerings, then they can just give Firefly subscribers maybe a cheaper cost to generate things. Currently it seems confusing to people who have all these credits they can’t utilize.

[paper frigate]

even if I'd agree to another subscription for Firefly only, the credits are just not enough at all. 20 videos per month and only 6 minutes of audio/video translation. This just isn't enough for any professional use - same for the Pro version. It's a big dissapointment.

Hi Folks, what‘s the best model for game screen design? I‘m currently coding (with the help of ChatGPT) some simple games to run on arduino like dev boards and facing the challenge of tiny display and also rounded displays. I tried dall-e but that didn’t work out well. Any suggestions?

[sharp tulip]

For sprite animation? That will be rough to get straight out of ai I’d think. Probably going to require a few other steps

[zinc mica]

I tried Firefly image to video, but I was not very impressed, to be honest i was expecting Firefly video to be much better, I think we need more than 2 tries to test

[honest quiver]

There's an update from Adobe here, and we will share new information if/when we get it: https://www.reddit.com/r/Adobe/comments/1io4y1u/adobe_firefly_announcements_video_model_faq/?rdt=37608

[wide tangle]

Yeah, was excited to try out the video generation and even decided on paying for it (even though that was disappointing to have to do), but so far I'm definitely underwhelmed with the output. The quality is definitely not usable yet in my opinion.

[heavy kiln]

My mistake.

weird how adobe has you paying for the creative cloud and adds charges to use firefly now. 💩 i feel like you getting more than enough out of me at this point.

Join the livestream Tim is showing up Adobe Neo

While reading what’s currently happening…the phrase "Creativity For All" crossed my mind…it was always visible somehow….Adobe also run a campaign around it 2020….I guess things changed around that core belief …

[honest quiver]

@coarse trellis @weak sedge you can find the latest information here #community-chat message

[solid jasper]

While you're free to criticize verbiage, it's not representative of the whole story. Adobe does have free tiers for Firefly, Adobe Express, Photoshop Express as well as Adobe Fresco being free.

[coarse trellis]

I just shared the phrase, no more, no less. 🙂

[livid jungle]

I finally got access to the firefly text to video beta, so I was excited to mess around for a bit. only to find out that I could only do 2 videos .-.
It is understandable to have a limit, but I also feel like there should be room to explore and use the tool. 2 videos is not enough for fooling around.
why sign up for a beta if it is extremely limited?

[ocean pond]

@livid jungle We feel your pain. Adobe is aware and looking into it.

[honest quiver]

I don't want to sound like a broken record, so apologies for the repeated shares, but check this message from adobe #community-chat message for the latest update on this

Hello,
I’m Nessa from London. Not sure I’m in the right room but I need help please.
I’m using the ‘beta image to video’ option for the first time but the model seems to be just one and there’s no way to imput images. How is this ‘image’-to-video? 😅 Is anyone using it? How can I input images please?

[ocean pond]

@trail roost Just left of the prompt box. Frame in on top, frame out is the bottom one.

[atomic trellis]

Has anyone been successful in generating an image to video where the person does not move? I'm using the same photo of a woman posing for the camera as the start and end image. I only want her hair and palm fronds in the shot to slowly move in the breeze, but have her stay perfectly still. She always turns her head or raises an arm. I can't use negative prompts but I've tried "standing still", "still like a statue", etc.

[ocean pond]

@atomic trellis Maybe try to use the same in frame and out frame and write what you want to happen.

[atomic trellis]

I am using the same photo of a woman posing for the camera as the start and end image. I've written that her hair and the palm frond move while she stays perfectly still.

[ruby viper]

UGHHH it sucks that the Firefly video sub is separate from the creative cloud package... I've been paying for the all apps suite for years and was hoping it would include the video once it came out 😦

FURTHERMORE: The two generations that it let me generate arent even showing in my files / generation history. So what was the point of them ?

[honest quiver]

that's odd, are you on the same device/browser you generated them from?

[atomic trellis]

It's not clear at all, but I think video history only stays until you close the browser. After that they are gone.

[ruby viper]

Yes same browser and device

[ruby viper]

Wow that is absolutely horrible!! I’ve never seen anything like that in all of my generative AI usage… well aside the fact that firefly image doesn’t even save generations

[honest quiver]

that is in reference to the current session, the history strip that displays over the prompt area, you should still be able to access your history https://helpx.adobe.com/ie/firefly/view-history/view-generation-history/view-generation-history.html @ruby viper

[muted stirrup]

guys how many credits does it take to generate a video with these settings, im finding the guidelines really unclear (image to video)

[honest quiver]

currently it takes 20 credits per second, however if you don't have a separate firefly plan, you can find those under "buy now" you will get a limited trial of the premium features

[muted stirrup]

why when i was able to generate a couple of videos previously it only took 1 credit?

[honest quiver]

I'm not sure what you mean by you were able to generate video for 1 credit? do you mean text-to-image?

[muted stirrup]

earlier today, i was able to generate two videos, each costing 1 credit each for a 5 second 9:16 image to video generation

and then after those two i cant generate any more because i am prompted with this screen

[polar hollow]

The two test results didn't blow me away enough to pay anything for them straight away.

[wild drum]

If you have a regular adobe subscription (like cc all apps), there’s a limit to how many times you can use premium features such as text/image to video and translation. You can see the different plans and features here: https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html#:~:text=What are Adobe Firefly Plus and Adobe Firefly Premium plans?

[muted stirrup]

say for example i am already an adobe paid user and it says i have 976 credits, if i were to buy the basic plan would that mean i have 2000 credits or 2976 credits?

[honest quiver]

2976 credits https://helpx.adobe.com/firefly/get-set-up/learn-the-basics/generative-credits-faq.html#:~:text=8. What if I have multiple subscriptions%3F

[muted stirrup]

thanks for your help 🙂

[trail roost]

Thanks! It was not working before. It works now 😊 🙏🏻✨

[lethal umbra]

My friends are using the new features of Adobe Firefly, like generating videos from images and text. Why am I getting a prompt that I don't have permission and need to request access from an administrator? I don't know where to apply! Help!

[wild drum]

This usually happens through school or teams account, you’ll need to speak the administrator of the adobe accounts

[woeful cape]

I have this issue, it seems like even as a paying customer you don't get to gen video, since it's another plan, I just messaged the CS and that's what I got

Thanks I wanted to share my feedback too, hopefully the team could address it soon

[uncut nymph]

same here,

[uncut nymph]

anyone undestand how the credit system works for creative cloud users?

[woeful cape]

I did some research and made a video about it, don't quote me on it, but hopefully it is helpful and Adobe could address it by clarifying it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQ2e1_otT_Q

[sharp tulip]

its not a case of how many credits you have. You can't spend them on video generation without a paid Firefly subscription.

Something I am not clear on however is, if you have an adobe CC account with 1,000 credits, and then you get a basic Firefly account with its included 2,000 credits, can you then spend your 3,000 points on video or are they still stuck as 1,000 adobe CC credits and only 2,000 Firefly video credits.

[uncut nymph]

cheers for reply, i would imagine that if the initial 1000 from CC cant be spend on video then even if you add 2000 extra by subscribing to it, you will only have 2000 for video.

[sharp tulip]

if that were the case, then that means there are 2 pools of credits though.

[uncut nymph]

ya sound like it. I just saw this chart on their site and is clear that cc all apps plans dont have video or audio plans

is really a shame

[sharp tulip]

Well, i understand it. It would be a huge resource cost with everyone testing it out the first month or so but i agree calling it "Premium" is confusing. they should reallly call it an Add-on.

and I'd like it if they let people use their current pool of credits on it too, perhaps at a higher generation cost than the Firefly subscription.

I'd bet most Adobe CC users use maybe half or less of their credits on a monthlly basis.

But we'll see what the future holds. I guess they are still discussing this all.

[astral jolt]

Same as before. There was no change in logic of how credits work except that for using GenVideo features you'd have to opt for an additional plan that allows you to use Premium features. See

[sharp tulip]

are we now allowed to post some tests we did during the closed beta? I did a couple of tests with it that gave me a laugh.

i wasnt sure since maybe that no longer represents the current state of the video model.

#welcome message

[honest quiver]

it was fixed in some but not all it appears, I've raised the issue again

[shy kayak]

How to control the quality of images generated with generate image API?

[crystal sundial]

When you say "quality", what do you mean?

[shy kayak]

In other text-to-image generation models, we have a number of inference steps variable that control the noise level in the generated image. Does Firefly also have a similar parameter?

[crystal sundial]

I do not think so. Not many of us here are experts in the API as that requires an enterprise contract. I think the relevant documentation on the parameters is here: https://developer.adobe.com/firefly-services/docs/firefly-api/guides/api/image_generation/V3/

[shy kayak]

Thanks for the info 👍

[plain spire]

Wow. I really don't get why Creative Cloud doesn't get access to "premium" firefly features. I mean, sure, make them use more credits given that they're more intensive. €68.68 a month is already making me question whether I need my original subscription - expecting us to add ANOTHER subscription is ludicrous.

[fresh tinsel]

hey guys, can firefly generate images based off an image input?

I'm new to firefly sorry for the n00b question

[solid jasper]

You can use images to drive the composition and style. There are slots for each in the GUI.
