Create a picture from a description

For a simple poster, an invitation or an illustration you do not need a designer. Describe what you want, and Chetty makes the picture and saves it as a file in your Project.

Before you start

  • Making pictures must be switched on for your organization. When Chetty answers that it cannot make images, ask your administrator.
  • Open the Project where the picture should be saved.

Ask for the picture

  1. Open a conversation in that Project.
  2. Describe the picture: what is on it, the style, the colours and the shape. For example: "a flat blue owl logo on a white background, centred, simple geometric shapes, square".
  3. Send the request and wait. A picture can take up to two minutes.
  4. Read the answer; it names the file Chetty saved.

Naming the subject, the style and the layout works much better than a single word.

Where the picture is saved

The picture lands in the Project as a file, by default in the generated-images folder with a unique name. Ask for another place in the same request: "save it as logo.png in the offers folder".

An existing file is never overwritten unless you ask for it.

Show the picture in the conversation

The picture is not shown by itself. Ask: "Show me the picture you just made." Chetty attaches it to the conversation, so you can look at it there or open the file in the Project.

What to expect

  • A picture can take up to two minutes. When it takes longer, the request ends without a picture.
  • Text inside a made-up picture often comes out garbled. Add the text later in an image editor when it has to be exact.
  • Every request makes a new picture, so asking twice gives two different results.

If it does not work

  • Chetty says it cannot make pictures. Making pictures is not switched on for your account. Ask your administrator to enable it.
  • The answer names a file but no picture appears. That is normal. Ask Chetty to show the picture in the conversation.
  • The request ends without a result. It took too long. Try again with a simpler description.
  • The picture is not what you wanted. Describe the change and ask for a new version. Name the colours, the shapes and what should be left out.
