Looking for the best prompts to use to create your own masterpiece? Then this guide is just for you!
1. Prompts Using Simple Tags
-
Main Points
- Using simple tags create outputs that are singularly focused on the tag, avoiding the possibility of unexpected twists to the output altogether.
- Shorter, clearer, and more succinct tags compared to complete sentences.
-
Examples
- enchanted book = create a book with a magical feel to it
- burning torch = create a torch that is burning
-
Beware
- Using natural sentences as prompts can add unforeseen (and unwarranted) elements to generating the output.
- For example, “a book that floats in the air with a glowing aura” can produce a book actually floating or add some unexpected lighting effects.
TIP
Use short, clear words as tags for prompts to get a clearer result devoid of confusion.
2. Adjust Prompt Length Accordingly
Short Prompts

- Ideal for finding the right style, testing out various versions, and quick ideations.

Detailed Prompts
- Useful for designating detailed elements of the output.
- Ideal for incorporating a detailed design element, emphasizing a specific mood/vibe of the output, and detailed control of the output.
- Can incorporate micro-detailed approach to a specific vibe/mood, and is ideal for producing consistent outputs using the same prompts.
