If I use all these repeat and permutation prompts I feel I would hit my FAST limitation super fast and then stuck on slow for the rest of the month......
1:27 - I'm on the basic plan and I got this message: Job action restricted Batch jobs are only available on standard and pro plans, with fast mode enabled.
Yes. They have been restricting some of these features. They eat a lot of your hours. On a basic plan, 4 or 5 big permutations would probably wipe your hours. But they have been expanding. These used to be only available on the Pro plans.
Just keep using relaxed mode. These new features will finish your pro fast mode subscription in 2 days. Thats how they're gonna make you pay for more subscriptions every month. Very smart of them.
I have been watching videos on mid journey since it's inception. This is by far the best produced video I have ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to make this extremely informative and well presented tutorial. Instant Sub.
Jenn, another amazing video, thank you. I've spent hours w/new prompts prior to noticing this video and I have a couple quick comments: In your parameter permutations example, you don't need to repeat the params unless you're altering params as well. For example: Instead of {--s 0, --s 500, --s1000} you could use *--s {0,500,1000}* When you need to mix params you're only able to reuse the "--", eg: *--{v 4,v 5,niji 4,niji 5}* Another subtle point -- you mentioned testing permutations to determine keywords effect; in that case, seeds become important because each permutation is a different seed otherwise. *logo for camera, {vector art, logo art} --{v 4,v 5,niji 4,niji 5} --seed 2222* Also, for random YT readers, this is limited to 10 permutations. Jenn mentioned this in the video, I only clarify because she stated "40 images" (in that case she's referring to 10 outputs * 4 images each). Thanks again for another great video.
Great tips! Yes, you can do the alternate formatting for parameters. Probably saves a bit of typing. Good point about the seed. Though we are writing just one prompt, Midjourney teases out the permutations and runs them separately. Each will have a different seed.
Thanks again for your great tips! Hopefully helpful: I found the music in this video a tiny bit too loud, competing with your voice, and getting exhausting after a few minutes. But that might also be just me.
Wow, my TH-cam Blues Teacher, Christian Fuchs, over here in the MidJourney image sphere. You're an amazing piano teacher and now I can't wait for your videos on putting blues and other types of piano styles behind MidJourney image stories!
Hello my name’s Corey and let me say WOW! I’m so glad I found your channel this morning and I’ll be going through all the content. I just started a business with MJ/CHATGPT4 etc and this channel will and has already HAS helped me tremendously after one single video. Please keep me up to date; I’m subscribed and all notifications are on….
I knew about the permutations, but somehow I had missed out on the "repeat" parameter. Still, too bad we can't use them with fast mode, but I understand why. Thanks again for sharing information and so many examples! 👍
The tools are only for fast mode. I think Midjourney technically loses money on relaxed. Last month I had to do a lot of ranking to have enough fast hours at the end of the month!!
Midjourney should begin making plans to raise their 25 free limit right away. As an alternative, AI technologies like Blue Willow will become more and more popular over time. Blue Willow, in my opinion, will be the one to take down MidJourney
it would be awesome, but it would need to be updated with every new version of MJ, which would be rough. Even now with MJ v5 being the main new version, there are test versions beyond v5 and the niji and other variations of 5. maybe someone can manage to create an ongoing udemy course that changes as the MJ changes.
I've thought about this, but as @TheFuzzypuddle notes below, it's difficult to keep up on all the changes. Maybe once the AI settles down and they're not dropping new tools as if they're candy. 😃
@@MakingPhoto I feel like it is impossible to keep up with the pace of release of AI tools. People have created so many plugins for various websites that use AI. Even YTers whose channels are dedicated to daily updates on AI in general are barely able to mention a tiny fraction of the new tools. The pace of development is insane.
OK. Thx! So it works on the 10$ / mth plan then? Can you clarify the hrs.? being maxed out? using Permutation under Basic? Lastly, a request? Please do a vid using Permutation with creating multiple variations of a Logo. Look forward to it if you do!
How many characters can you put into a prompt before Midjourney just stops listening? It does seem to have a sometimes short attention span. Maybe not with the commands in the video, but in general. Always wondered about that...
I haven't hit a limit in fact. Your prompts can be as long as you want (I guess). But you've got a great point about when the AI stops listening. It has a short attention span and takes details as suggestions.
This is a great vid. I've seen these features in the MJ user guide, but I didn't recognize their power. @1:16 choosing V3 presented the window for submitting a form, blah, blah. I've seen this form when I choose one of the 4 choices presented by a /describe image. How do you get this window that allows you to change the prompt for the variations? I rarely use variations anymore because the variances are so slight. Perhaps there will be a small adjustment to the placement of an arm or another tiny element. having the ability to modify the prompt for a variation would be incredibly powerful.
I think you're talking about Remix. To open this window with variations... in the prompt bar type /Prefer Remix and click enter. It should turn on the Remix mode. Then this window appears when you click variation and you can change the prompt. Search my channel. I have a video on Remix.
I couldn't get into my discord account, and now my Midjourney account and subscription has disappeared! I'm afraid I will be charged for a subscription I can't even access! Can you help with advice?
Midjourney runs completely through Discord right now unless you are a Super User (over 10K generations) Did you try going through your MJ website? www.midjourney.com/account/
@@MakingPhoto Yes, I did try that, and I had over 14K generations (luckily, due to your advice, I had downloaded most of them - thank-you 🙏!) . Still no reply from Midjourney, and it's been two days; so far, not a peep from them. Discord says they are on it, but no help has come of it...☹😞 I will have lost about two weeks of very long hours of work (mostly mock ups to sell with). Some of my best mock-ups will be lost if I can't regain control. I feel devastated.
This guy tested out the effect of punctuation and concluded it doesn't matter much (see th-cam.com/video/3VdJRy5qJ58/w-d-xo.html) so probably you could skip putting in forward slashes (4:29). I haven't tried it but if it works it would save some needless effort.
Thanks. I'll take a look. I assume he just left out all punctuation. The way I've shown you is the way MJ laid it out in their user manual. I'll run a few tests.
6:24 I love it that Midjourney saw the sonsense in the pinapple+pizza prompt
😃 pineapple pizza gave MJ a little trouble. Maybe like me, Midge never has pineapple on her pizza.
The best TH-camr for mid journey on TH-cam. Another great video and you seem to know the topics that people want to hear about great work
Wow, thank you! We're all learners in this new AI space!
If I use all these repeat and permutation prompts I feel I would hit my FAST limitation super fast and then stuck on slow for the rest of the month......
Yes, it's an easy trap they made to increase spending! 😂
My shorts channel using ai th-cam.com/channels/orvv69XskAaTujTwbFlxXg.html
😃 I used a ton of fast hours last month! I'm glad MJ makes me confirm the run. It keeps me from running mistakes.
One of the easiest explanations. Thank you
No problem! Have fun and don't run out of GPU!
I have been using Midjourney for a while now, but I still learn some new things. Thanks.
No problem! Midjourney keeps coming up with new things.

Repeat play. Repeat play. ... LOL
Thank you! Very helpful.
😍😃😍😃
Thanks!
No problem, Alejandro!
I'm TURBO charged... your first AI fan @SALLI.E ...
Super to hear, SALLI.E! Kick start that creativity!
Thanks so very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I didn't know that it was possible to use parameters and nesting in permutations. You make such beautiful images!
Thanks! nesting permutations makes my head explode!
Thanks again for your great tips! Hopefully helpful: I found the music in this video a tiny bit too loud, competing with your voice, and getting exhausting after a few minutes. But that might also be just me.

Midjourney should begin making plans to raise their 25 free limit right away. As an alternative, AI technologies like Blue Willow will become more and more popular over time. Blue Willow, in my opinion, will be the one to take down MidJourney
Midjourney has disabled their free trials. A lot of people like BlueWillow!
Has anyone heard any news on the zoom out feature they promised a while ago?
That will be a hugely powerful feature.
Zoom out keeps getting brought up at MJ office hours. But nothing concrete.
This is probably the most useful Midjourney video I've seen thus far. The amount of time I can save...thank you!
Thanks, Jadi! Have fun creating!
Useful reminders, thanks - just 1 thing: IMHO, unrelated stock footage + cheesy music are immensely distracting... keep it simple!
;)
Thanks!
WoW! So, so cool!! Love it!!
Thank you! Keep creating!
Batch permutations only works on standard and pro plans
Yes. The basic plan only has about 3 hours. You'd blow through that really fast if you're not careful.
Thank you
No problem!
I like the images of the graphic style birds and plants at the beginning. What’s the prompt?
vibrant illustration, style of Charley Harper, style of Jim Shore, style of Mary Blair
@@MakingPhoto Thank you 😊
Can you just make a full Udemy course on prompting in MidJourney plz. I need like 100 hours of instruction. Thanks!
it would be awesome, but it would need to be updated with every new version of MJ, which would be rough.

@@TheFuzzypuddle yes! When I started back in August 2022, I was including every AI I could get my hands on. Now I'm having to specialize. Too much!
Soon it will be back to learning some fancy machine language to prompt this thing.😆
😃 Yes. There are some codes that get the tool to do certain things.
4:07 do you mean a comma AND a space…?
The space doesn't matter. Put it in or not. The comma is what matters.
Hi Janet,
Please clarify what level of subscription level regarding Permutation as it is not working for me?
It should work on the Pro and the Standard plans. If you have Basic, you could easily wipe all your hours out with a few big permutations.
OK. Thx! So it works on the 10$ / mth plan then?
Can you clarify the hrs.? being maxed out? using Permutation under Basic?
Lastly, a request?
Please do a vid using Permutation with creating multiple variations of a Logo.
Look forward to it if you do!

@@MakingPhoto thank you for the reply. i found it in settings and turned it on. the details you provided on how to use it help a lot.
[This is in brackets.] {This is in braces.} Midjourney uses braces, not brackets.
Yes. Correct.
How anyone can not see that Mid Journey is just Stable Diffusion with a Discord interface is beyond me.
Because it's not. The style of Midjourney is COMPLETELY different. I use both MJ and SD. I have to prompt very differently between the two.
