How do you guys write your prompt enhancers? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Do you keep it simple? Just long enough? Go wild with it? How about embeddings, do you also use them?

The more I learn about this, the more I don't understand it. Outside of some basic enhancers (masterpiece, best quality, worst quality, and bad anatomy/hands etc. if I'm generating a human), I don't see any big improvements. Every combination gives different result; some look better, some look worse depending on the seed, sampler, etc. It's basically a matter of taste. Note that I only do illustrations/paintings so the differences might not be much. Do you keep tweaking your prompts or just settle with the prompts you've been using?

Prompting is basically the ability to be descriptive. Using 'enhancers' feels a lot like trying to replace an experienced author's descriptions with hashtags. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing because it's been trained with tags that are basically the equivalent of a hashtag... but mixing them together on your own to find out what effects they can create seems to be way more rewarding than just copy and pasting other peoples 'enhancers.'

As far as tweaking the prompt, it's a setting just like everything else. If you get one to spit out something you like, stick with it for awhile and test out tweaking other settings.

I've been minimizing the prompts I use ever since I felt the prompts other people use are too excessive. Though it's not easy trying out the prompts as sometimes it changes drastically, sometimes it's barely noticable, and not in a good or bad way, more like different "taste".

Yep, I'm also a fan of short prompts. There's something satisfying about being able to achieve desired flavors/tastes with as few words as possible. The only times I seem to need to feed it more are if I'm running controlnets and don't want it to diverge too much from the original image.
