how to learn midjourney

midjourney moved onto the web and a lot of muscle memory stopped working. parameters still matter: an aspect ratio flag placed badly, or fighting a model that quietly rounds it, gives you a square when you asked for a banner. keeping one character across a set of images needs the right reference flag, not a longer prompt. upscale now comes in flavours, and vary region lives somewhere different than people expect. and a harmless-sounding prompt trips the banned prompt warning with no explanation of which word did it.

the pieces below start with the basics of using midjourney on the web instead of discord. parameters get their own set, led by aspect ratios that refuse to apply. references form the biggest cluster: style reference, character consistency across generations, and feeding an image in as part of the prompt. then the refinement stage, with the differences between subtle and strong variation and where region editing sits. downloading your results is covered, along with what to do when moderation blocks a prompt.

prompting is a skill, so it is worth building it rather than copying strings. with your gallery or prompt bar on screen, hold the key and ask "how do i keep this same character in the next image". the screen is read at that moment only, the answer comes back by voice, and a teal dot points at the field or flag to change. you type the prompt yourself. after a few goes you are writing the parameters from memory instead of pasting someone else's.
