Yay. You made a video about my question. 👏 Thanks Juna. I made some fantastic images on there, but I don't know how to tag them, now. As far as any AI art is concerned, the prompts are key. Use lots of descriptive words and even some names of artists you like.

[amyemmert]

I have just recently come across your channel and I gotta say you have taught me so much. Thank you Thank you Thank you!! Looking forward to more content from you.

Thanks for this intro! One thing is for sure, AI for designers is here to stay. Will be ... interesting ... to see where it all goes!

Hey Juna, interesting vid, Thank you. I had similar results, but what I did was take a couple prompts of Lexica and Midjourney, they were insanely detailed and the results on the original platform was mind blowing. BUT things went off the rails on Canva, but I still got some useable graphics for t-shirts after some cleanup work so I'm thinking Canva for me is low on the totem pole but still useable. What must be said is that I don't do exotic, beautifully rendered art works, I'm more like "wham, bam, slam get it done, type. So it's horses for courses. Thanks again for your effort

[hiliaacevedo]

Don’t know much, I would try it, and let you know, thanks, keep your videos coming, 🙌🏼

[cirruscapo]

Thanks for the video, it was a great help with using Canva in general...

[jic]

Hi, thanks as always. I tried using the same words (prompt), minus “t-shift design” results were better 😊 (some images were kinda wired though) 😅

[ErwinKok]

Great video! I used a few different AI Art generators. I think the prompt should be more focused on the design style itself, not on what you are going to use it for. So don't use words like t-shirt design or poster etc., it takes that too literally. What works better, for example, is "A panda riding a bike in kawaii cartoon style" and in some generators, it helps also if you give more information like in the style of {artist name} example "van Gogh" or mood, environment, etc. In general, my conclusion is it takes a couple of tries to get something useful, but it can help with composition ideas or concepts. If lucky sometimes even useful parts can be cut out or can be used as templates/sketches to draw over with vectors. It can be helpful if you are stuck with ideas and get creative ideas. But mostly I am faster if I draw from scratch myself especially because I like my art in vectors. For generating text designs it is useless it mostly generates nonsense words.

A very informative video
Thanks for sharing

[burcuicen]

Very informative video! Thanks, Juna, I think text-to-image generators can be used to generate unique graphics, that no one else used on their t-shirt. The rest is, adding the text, and generating the design! Maybe you can try Midjourney in your other videos. It is a wonderful tool.

[silvermushroom-gamifyevery]

Couple of points:
1) I’ve heard that the new Deepfloyd software can handle text, but other than that, text is a known weak point for the ai art generators, and canva is likely using one of the older models
2) You usually need to put in hundreds of repetitions with good prompts and even in-painting (deleting a section of an image, and then regenerating that section with the same or a different prompt) to get to the image that you want. That said,
3) I think that currently AI art will be useful for base images that standard graphic design apps then alter into a final design, and a GODSEND for Lifestyle ads and stock photos. Also
4) AI art is a huge topic that is constantly developing. I recommend the channels aitrepreneur, Mattvidpro AI, and your best scuba kit if you’re interested in learning more.

Thanks Juno for the video. I wasn't aware of Canva having AI. I noticed the AI feature is not there. I prefer to create my own design using Canva template and features.

[simplyrelaxedvideos]

Night cafe is awesome. Some of the ones in creative fabrics spark are also pretty good.

[simplyojphotosnshop]

Thanks Juna for this video. I've tried this feature at Canva and it really depends on the prompts you type. I have not tried to use it in POD.

[MexLatinFoodplusArtConsultant]

I'm gonna try creating text free images in ai and download each of my designs to my photo album on my phone and then import them into canva as a custom design template....and then add text over that

[GolpokothokRaktim]

I believe that this year will bring us a ton of incredible AI technologies that will improve our lives. The winners will be those who can effectively use these AI tools. Recently, using the Blue Willow tool, I produced incredible photos

[houndar]

I've used it for parts of my design when I couldn't find an image that I wanted, but I had to be very specific and run it a few times.

[vandvaka]

Thank you, will try this, What is the font name you were using in your orange slides( in the video)? Is there any equivalent font in canva or from creative fabrica, ?

[brianm]

Hi Juna. Do you recommend downloading the free fonts they use in Canva (which are actually Google fonts) or purchasing something like Creative Fabrica to download from their catalog which has just under 90, 000 fonts to choose from? Thanks in advance!

[drewlongbrakevibes]

Hi, great info! I just want to confirm, for the future, is it legal to sell the Ai designs from Canva commercially? Thanks!
