STYLE RANDOM in Midjourney V6! (using Style Reference!)
TLDRIn this informative video, the presenter explores the new 'Style Random' feature in Midjourney V6, which allows users to input 'sref random' at the end of their prompt to generate images with a random style. The video demonstrates how to obtain a style reference code from an image, which can then be applied to future prompts for consistency. It also highlights the ability to combine styles within an image using the 'vary region' tool. The presenter shares a trick to upscale and change style references within specific areas of an image. The video also covers limitations, such as the inability to use more than one code and the incompatibility of certain commands with the new feature. The presenter encourages viewers to experiment with different style numbers and to share their findings. Finally, the video shows how to use style variations with image URLs for further creative control, inviting viewers to explore and share their discoveries with the community.
Takeaways
- 🎨 **Random Style Feature**: In Midjourney V6, you can add 'sref random' to your prompt to generate an image with a random style.
- 📝 **Style Reference Code**: A style reference code is provided alongside your prompt, which you can copy and use for consistency across images.
- 🔗 **Discord vs. Website**: On the Midjourney website, 'srf random' is shown instead of the code, but you can obtain the code using the job ID through Discord.
- 🔄 **Consistent Style Across Tools**: The same style code can be applied in both the Midjourney website and Discord for a consistent result.
- 🔢 **Numerical Style Codes**: By using 'D-sref' followed by any number, you can generate images with a specific numbered style, allowing for experimentation.
- 🌐 **Sharing Style Codes**: You can share and use style codes with others, and the creator plans to compile these on their website for easy access.
- 🖼️ **Combining Styles with Vary Region**: Using the lasso tool and 'vary region' in remix mode, you can apply different style references to specific parts of an image.
- ❌ **Limitations**: You cannot use more than one style code at a time, and certain combinations like 'SV' with a URL or number result in errors.
- 🔎 **Exploring Styles**: Typing a random number after 'D-' allows for discovery of different styles, and using 'D-repeat' with a number lets you try multiple styles at once.
- 📈 **Style Variations**: By using an image URL with 'D-SV' and a set of numbers in curly brackets, you can generate multiple slight variations of a style.
- 🔗 **Using URLs for Styles**: You can still use image URLs as style references in version six, allowing for the creation of different styles based on the same image.
- 📚 **Resource for Style Codes**: The video description contains a link to a resource of style codes for further exploration and experimentation.
Q & A
What is the new feature in Midjourney V6 that allows for a random style to be applied to an image?
-In Midjourney V6, you can type 'sref random' at the end of your prompt to get a random style applied to your image.
How can you obtain a style reference code when using the Midjourney website?
-On the Midjourney website, after generating an image, you can copy the job ID, then use the command 'slash show space' followed by pasting the job ID in Discord to obtain the style code.
Is there a consistency in the style across multiple images generated using the same style reference code?
-Yes, there is a noticeable consistency in the style across images generated with the same style reference code.
What does the speaker plan to do with the discovered style numbers on their website?
-The speaker plans to start a page on their website to share the discovered style numbers and styles, allowing others to try them out.
How can you combine styles within a single image using the 'vary region' feature?
-With 'remix mode' turned on, you can use the lasso tool to select a specific area of the image and change the style reference, effectively applying a different style to that area.
What happens if you try to use more than one style code in Midjourney V6?
-Using more than one style code in Midjourney V6 will result in an error; the system only accepts one style code at a time.
How can you explore a vast number of styles with a single prompt?
-You can type 'random' followed by 'D-' and a number into your prompt to explore different styles. Using 'D- repeat' with a number allows you to try several different styles at once.
What is the purpose of the 'SV' parameter when using a URL in Midjourney?
-The 'SV' parameter allows you to specify a style version between 1 to 4, which gives a slightly different version of the style when using an image URL.
How can you create variations of a single style using the 'curly brackets' method?
-You can create variations by adding 'D-SV' followed by curly brackets containing a comma-separated list of numbers (1 to 4), which will generate multiple slightly different versions of that style.
What is the benefit of using the 'SL tune' function in version 5.2?
-The 'SL tune' function allows you to create a style code that can be used in version 5.2, and then the URL can be copied and used as a style reference in version six for further experimentation.
How can you share a style code with others once you find one that is particularly appealing?
-If you find a style code that is eye-catching, you can share it in the comments section of the video or any other platform where the discussion is taking place.
What does the speaker encourage the viewers to do after watching the video?
-The speaker encourages viewers to like the video if they found it useful and to check out the resource of style codes provided in the video description.

🎨 Exploring MidJourney Version 6's Random Style Feature
The video introduces the new random style feature in MidJourney version 6, which allows users to add a style to their image by typing 'sref space random' at the end of their prompt. This feature is reminiscent of the 'tune' function from version 5 and provides a style reference code next to the prompt. The code can be copied from the job ID on Discord or the website, although the website uses 'srf random' instead of the actual code. Users can apply the same style to different prompts and even combine styles within an image using the 'vary region' tool. The video also discusses the limitations, such as the inability to use more than one code or mix codes with certain commands. It encourages viewers to experiment with different style numbers and share their findings, and it mentions the creation of a website page dedicated to sharing style codes and numbers.
🛡️ Using Style References and Variations in MidJourney
The second paragraph explains how to use style references with image URLs in MidJourney. By pasting an image URL and using the 'D- srf' command followed by the URL, users can apply styles to their prompts. The video also demonstrates how to use style versions (D-SV) with numbers ranging from 1 to 4 to achieve slightly different versions of the same style. Additionally, it shows how to generate multiple variations of a style using curly brackets to list permutations. The host encourages viewers to experiment with the new style random feature and to use the SL tune function in version 5.2 for creating style codes that can be used in version 6. The video concludes by inviting viewers to like the video if they found it useful and to stay tuned for more content.
