# AI images, from a description to your next visual.

ELUAI brings multiple image models into one creative workspace. Generate from text, edit with reference images and compare alternatives on an infinite canvas. Start with the subject, setting, light and composition, then describe each revision clearly.

## What can you create?

### Text to image

Start with a poster background, illustration or cover. Describe the subject, setting, aspect ratio and space for text. Test a simple composition before adding detail.

### Reference-image edits

Upload an image you have permission to use. Separate what should stay from what should change, such as keeping a cup while changing the background and lighting.

### Compare model choices

Keep the prompt and references in one project, try available models and compare subject detail, text rendering and style before choosing a direction.

## Creative workflow

1. **Define the visual** — Describe the subject, setting, style, light and composition. Leave room for typography and verify any generated text.

2. **Choose a model and settings** — Create an image node on the canvas and select an available model. Connect references for edits and check aspect ratio, resolution and count.

3. **Review credits and generate** — Review the current credit estimate before submitting. Uploading references or creating nodes does not automatically start a generation.

4. **Review and refine** — Check the subject, colors and structure and keep useful results. Change one or two requirements at a time so you can judge the effect.

## Examples and prompts

These prompts are examples. The images are AI-generated illustrations, not customer case studies; results depend on the model, references and settings.

### Example: a poster illustration

A spring coffee illustration in cream and dark green. Place a ceramic cup in the lower half, with soft morning light and paper texture. Leave space for a headline above; no text.

### Example: change the setting

Keep the reference cup’s shape, white color and handle direction. Replace the setting with a pale wooden table and blurred window, with soft side light. Add no logos, text or extra objects.

## Check before delivery

- Compare subject structure, count, colors and text with the reference; exact preservation is not guaranteed.

- Check the downloaded dimensions, crop and intended use. A raster image is not an editable vector design.

## Review credits before generation

Review the live estimate before each generation. Usage varies with the model, settings and count.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I generate without a reference?

Yes. Choose a text-to-image model and describe the subject, setting and composition. Use an image-edit operation when you have a reference.

### Do all models allow the same reference count?

No. Operations, reference limits and output settings vary by model. Check the canvas controls and use the model directory to identify each option.

### How are AI images priced?

Credits depend on the model, settings and count. Review the live estimate and settlement record. Regenerating starts a new task with new usage.
