What is Craiyon AI?
Craiyon AI (formerly DALL-E mini) is a groundbreaking AI-powered tool that empowers you to create stunning images effortlessly. With its user-friendly interface, Craiyon AI can serve various purposes, such as marketing, education, and entertainment. Explore the limitless creative possibilities with Craiyon AI!
In this blog post, I will show you how to use Craiyon to create your fantastic content. I will also provide tips and tricks to help you get the most out of this powerful tool.
Getting Started with Craiyon AI
The first step is to create a free account on the Craiyon website. Once you have created an account, you can create your own content.
Enter your text-based prompt for the tool to start generating output. Before hitting draw, you can choose from Art, Drawing, Photo, or None.
Next, hit the DRAW button and wait for the generated art to appear after selecting the type of content you want to create and entering your prompt.
Is Craiyon AI Free?
The basic account is free to sign up and download watermarked images. However, if you want to purchase images or upgrade to a paid plan, they offer a Supporter, Professional, and Enterprise tiers. Some of the benefits of the Professional Plan are:
- 15-second images (free plan takes longer)
- Unlimited images
- Highest priority for image generation
- No ads (plenty of ads in the free plan)
- No watermarks (the free plan has watermarks)
- Images are private (free plan shared your images anonymously)
- Early access to new features
Here is the link to the pricing page at Craiyon.com.
Using the Craiyon AI Art Generator
The Craiyon Art Generator has several features that you can use to create your content. These features include:
- A library of images that you can use as inspiration
- Selections for the type of output you want
- Negative words field to refine your output
Below, I’ll go into more detail on a quick project I developed using Craiyon AI.
Creating Content with Craiyon AI
My first step to creating content with Craiyon AI is to open the Craiyon AI Art Generator.
Next type, I prompt the AI Art Generator in the “What do you want to generate?” field.
Craiyon Prompt in Style of Vincent Van Gogh
For this example, I type the following prompt:
“Paint a picture of an old bearded man walking on a beautiful sandy beach, with surf crashing in, holding a fishing rod over his shoulder. Paint the picture in the abstract style of Vincent Van Gogh.”
One of the results is depicted in the image on the left. It is worth noting that the free version includes the Craiyon watermark at the bottom right corner of the image.
After generating the image, you even have the option to purchase a t-shirt with your creation from the site for $26.00.
Next, I updated my input prompt and asked to change the artist’s style to Pablo Picasso.
Craiyon Prompt in Style of Pablo Picasso
Below is my updated prompt and the image generated. I liked this image.
“Paint a picture of a bearded man walking on a beautiful sandy shore. Paint the picture in the abstract painting style of Pablo Picasso.“
Review of Craiyon AI Image Generator
Overall, I liked the Craiyon platform, and being able to download quality images on the free plan is a big plus.
The biggest drawback to the free plan is that the images you create are shared anonymously in the Craiyon Search with other users. This could be an issue if you are trying to generate a logo.
Once you have familiarized yourself with Craiyon, you can create your content.
Get creative with your prompts, generate something extraordinary, and share in the comments.
If you need help with prompts, Craiyon has a blog to help you with some ideas and even provides examples.
Hit the “DRAW” button after typing in your crazy idea and prepare to see your image displayed.
If you don’t like the options Craiyon generates, you can edit the AI image text prompt and see what it comes up with.
Finally, you can download the image in small or medium size format. Hit the Upscale size button to download in an image size of 1024 x 1024 pixels.
Tips and Tricks
Here are a few tips and tricks to help you get the most out of Craiyon:
- Use the library of images and videos as inspiration
- Use the text editor to create text content
- Experiment with different settings and options
- Have fun!
Once you have created your images, you can even use a photo editing program such as Photoshop to customize the image however you like. This is a great tool to get started, but use your photo editing skills to take it to the NEXT LEVEL!
If you use Photoshop to customize your images, remember that free images are not to be used for commercial use, such as for logos.
Conclusion
Craiyon is a powerful tool that can help you create stunning AI-generated images. It’s easy to use and can be used for various purposes.
In this blog post, I have shown you how to use Craiyon to create your fantastic content. I have also provided tips and tricks to help you get the most out of this powerful tool.
I hope you enjoy using Craiyon!
