Midjourney Editor: A Game Changer?
Midjourney has created an editor available through their web interface (not sure if it's available via Discord or not). I just read through their announcement and watched a video giving an example of what it can do. I must say, I think this could be a game changer, if it works as well as their video shows. I don't want to have too many subscriptions that I'm paying for if I am not fully using them. So I was ready to sign up for a year a NightCafe before their super good deal expires. I was then planning on getting rid of my MJ subscription once I had upsized and downloaded all the images I created which I wanted (that could take at least a couple months to do). But now after seeing that MJ is seriously improving their platform and what their new Editor can do I'm not so sure I want to get rid of it. Have any of you played around with their new editor?

@Denise Wiley I use MJ and NightCafe, which has a bunch of different AI engines to choose from, including Dall-e, Ideogram (several versions) and one of the AI engines (Flux) is trainable. So you can create your own model with the traits that you want. The users/creators have done an amazing job of creating such a broad diversity of styles this way, and you get to choose from among them. I am fairly new here myself, so anyone else is free to disagree with what I say and I would recommend taking their view over mine because I'm new, but I think MJ was one of the original favorites. Kittl was very popular, until the recent change they made where they cut the AI credits to about a quarter of what they were, and they did it to people who had prepaid for a year even. Very bad business ethics. So a lot of people have left them. At this point it seems like a lot more moved over to MyDesigns which allows you to create with Dall-e and Ideogram (and a couple more I think). So that is in general what I have seen, but there are others using different AI models too.

Help with converting portraits/photos into watercolor or similar
I would like to convert animal portraits into watercolor. It's my understanding that we used to be able to use Prisma in Canva to do that, but I don't think it is offered in Canva any longer. Am I mistaken? Does anyone else have any suggestions on how to get the watercolor effect added to photos/portraits? I'd be happy with converting them into line drawings or something similar at this point.

@Janet Bullard I was pleased with how they turned out, it was pretty easy to do. Of course I made several more than what I uploaded here, as I was experimenting with different AI engines and the prompt. But most of the ones I didn't include were because they didn't have enough of the watercolor effect. I think now that I have done some experiments and figured out the best AI model and prompt I could create a lot of good results from different photos. I'm thinking now about how these could be used and marketed.

@Janet Bullard Yes for sure that has been my experience. And they have different artistic styles too, or at least the different generators are better suited to different styles.
Anxiety/Stress/Perfectionism: Sharing this because it's very common...
There was a post earlier in the other group about anxiety with posting designs, SEO, shop layout, etc. and I wanted to shared my response to let everyone know that this is very common and to help anyone that may feel imposter syndrome in anyway and know you're not alone... So in response to feeling like you have imposter syndrome, or your shop layout doesn't look perfect or your designs aren't looking like what you want or like others: When I decided to make tumbler wraps designs, there were several large design shops with over 100K sales and 5K+ reviews and they were graphic designers (like real ones who used PS, Illustrator, and Procreate), I know this because I joined all the FB groups and was doing as much research as possible to see what made them successful...because here I was, just utilizing commercial use graphics and attempting to draw in Procreate (that ended quickly). I created SO many designs, that I NEVER posted because I thought they weren't good enough, didn't look like theirs's, and I just felt like an imposter in their SPACE. After like my 100th YT video, I was just like, you know what, whatever, I need to post them to see what works and what doesn't and I did and I started getting sales on the most random designs (and in my opinion) the most ugly designs. But it was because they weren't like everyone else's....they were unique in their own way, because they were different from the 'professionals' . So it's ok to be NOT be perfect or be different than the rest. My early designs were NOT 300 DPI, some were not size correctly, I had typos on a few (this still happens today) etc. But the more I posted, the better I got and the more that sales happened and the more my confidence grew and I just kept posting, practicing, posting practicing and within that first year, I topped every original 'tumbler designer' on Etsy in both sales and reviews. (not a flex, just facts :). All this to say, don't let perfectionism stop you from posting, you'll always be continuing to learn and that's a good thing. :)

Thank you Bailey, that's a beautiful and inspiring story, and just what I needed to hear right now. It's not so much that I have anxiety, but I my personality is so focused on learning, constantly, that I get into that cycle and sometimes need to intervene and break myself out of it to start just doing the thing and not worry about trying to do it all perfectly.
Were you "Pro or No" to AI when it came out for designing images?
I get it....AI is a touchy subject, it was for me too... It seems like yesterday, but at the beginning of 2023, diving into AI felt nerve-wracking. My Etsy store was FALLING BEHIND fast. 😱EVERYONE was now using AI to create/sell their designs. I was SO hesitant to use it at first, thinking my customers were going to be 'anti-ai'. But it was either try and catch up or let the shop go. 🤿 So, I jumped in and went ALL in. (and my customer's loved the new designs, btw) I've learned how to use a few AI tools quite well and I don't just use it for my Etsy designs. It does much more. It helps with SEO, makes product mockups, manages my calendar, helps with content ideas, social media and posting. I got way better at business because of it. 🤔 I get asked all the time, 'how do you prompt like that'... and the reality is I do have a slight head start as far as writing (I was a English Lit grad, so ALL I did was write creatively for 6 years, lol). BUT, I still use AI to help me fill in the blanks when I get stuck with designs or social media ideas. ⭐ This is why I started the DFY Trending Product, AI Prompt & SEO Club. It allows me to give YOU such a HEAD START now on Etsy with a new daily trending product that has LOW competition on Etsy, the AI prompts to create them and the SEO.

When it came out, or at least when AI hit the public consciousness and I became aware that it became mainstream/commercial I was firmly in the NO camp. Now it's almost an addiction level thing for me. But my deal with myself is that I have to actually do something with it that gives me a return on my investment of time and money. For me it's just a difficult and slightly time consuming process to decide what... or what to do and focus on first, because I can't see myself doing just one thing, one shop and stopping there. Just a note, I have a degree in Computer Science, and during my studies I was very interested in AI and so took some AI courses, built my own AI algorithms. Genetic AI was my favorite, because they self-perpetuate and evolve.
