How to use Midjourney 03-Breakdown of Common Commands

This entry is part 3 of 6 in the series Midjourney Tutorial

When it comes to AIGC (Artificial Intelligence Generated Content) in digital painting, Midjourney is an essential topic. Its ease of use, high efficiency, strong creativity, and excellent image quality have made it widely adopted in the designer community.

This course will break down Midjourney’s parameters and commands. The outline is as follows:

  1. Introduction to Midjourney
  2. How to add robots
  3. Breakdown of Common Commands
  4. Combining Commands for Enhanced Usage

This structure will guide you through understanding and mastering Midjourney’s capabilities

To generate similar images, you’ll need the seed value. Here’s how to retrieve it:

  1. React with an Emoji: After generating an image, click the “✉️ Envelope” emoji below the image.

  1. Receive the Details: Midjourney will respond with the image’s details, including the seed value.

  1. Use the /info Command: Alternatively, type /info to view recent generations and their seed values.

Once retrieved, you can reuse the seed value in future prompts with the --seed [value] command to produce similar results.


The --q parameter determines the quality level of the final image. Higher quality settings add more detail and refinement to the image, similar to longer rendering times in 3D graphics. However, higher quality also consumes more GPU time.

Important Notes:

  • Quality settings do not affect image resolution, only the level of detail and refinement.
  • Higher quality settings result in longer rendering times.

In the example below:

  • --q .25 produces a less detailed image with faster rendering.
  • --q .5 balances quality and speed.
  • --q 1 generates a highly detailed and refined image at the cost of more GPU time.

The --s parameter controls artistic creativity:

  • –s 0: Minimal stylization; strict adherence to the prompt.
  • –s 500: Balanced artistic creativity and prompt precision.
  • –s 1000: Highly artistic but less connected to the prompt.

In the example below:

  • As the stylize value increases, the artistic quality, detail, and layer complexity of the image also increase.
  • However, the connection to the prompt becomes less precise.
