  3. Improve prompt specificity
  4. Try higher resolution option

Inconsistent Results​

Problem: Same prompt gives very different results

Solutions:

  1. Use seed for reproducibility
  2. Be more specific in prompt
  3. Try Flux Kontext for consistency
  4. Use reference images

Prompt Not Followed​

Problem: Output doesn't match prompt

Solutions:

  1. Simplify prompt
  2. Use premium model for better adherence
  3. Break into essential elements
  4. Add emphasis to key elements
