Generating images with AI

AI → Images generates an image from a description and puts it in the site's media library, ready to use in a post.

Writing a description that works

Say the subject, the setting and the treatment, in that order. "A ceramic coffee cup on a pale oak table, morning light from the left, shallow depth of field" produces something usable; "coffee" produces a stock cliché.

Then choose the aspect ratio to match where it is going — wide for a header, square for a listing, tall for social.

What it costs

Images are billed from the same AI credit balance as written content, at a per-image rate shown on the screen before you generate. A generation that fails costs nothing.

What you may do with the result

The images are yours to use commercially, including on client sites. We do not claim any right in them.

⛔ Do not generate images of real, identifiable people, or in a named living artist's style. That is where image generation stops being safe to publish, and no licence we can give you fixes it.

Getting it into a post

Generated images land in the site's media library with the description as their alt text, which you should edit — the prompt describes the image, and alt text describes what a reader who cannot see it needs to know. Those are not the same sentence.

⭐ Alt text is translated with the rest of the page. Write it once in your own language and every locale gets it.
