A million ways: Introducing Content Reference

Take the shape and form of any input image, and use that to guide your image generation. This is more than just a depth or edge mapped controlnet, it semantically guides the generation with your input content. Your prompt will dictate the color and style of your generation – so it’s a great way to restyle existing images. It can also be combined with a style reference.

Use it for:

✅ Restyling: Use an existing image as content reference and use a different style reference to transform an image

✅ Variations: Use an existing image as content reference and tweak the prompt to create variations

✅ Text: Use an image of large text as a content reference and transform it into a highly stylised output

Mix-master: Multi-Style Reference is here

This is a feature for creators wanting to blend and mix different styles with precision. Add up to 4 style references and weight them independently. Bring textures, genres and artistic styling together to create images like never before.

Note that the strength of style reference is shared between the references, but the weight of each reference can be independently adjusted.
