I’m looking for an AI image generator I can use to create simple images for my articles, mostly as featured images. Since I don’t have a budget for this right now, I’m hoping to stick with free options.

I’ve seen people mention platforms like Vondy, Canva, or Fotor that bring different AI tools to the table, but I’m curious if anyone here has tried them specifically for this kind of use case.

What free tools have worked best for you when it comes to quick, decent quality images?

I want to use an AI image generator to create images for my articles, but know which one is a good option.

I mostly want to great simple images that will be used as as the featured image.

I don't have any money to invest so I just want to use free versions for now.

I like the new ChatGPT generator but it takes too long to generate images for my purpose. I need something faster but also has the same quality. Google Gemini's Imagen seems to produce only low resolution images... I'm very uneducated in this area and really need advice. Can someone recommend me an engine? For context, I have to generate a lot of images for the B-roll of Instagram reels and TIktoks I record.

Before I used Bing regularly in February with Copilot, but recently I have found that it has become much slower and it no longer generates as many images as I wanted (always a problem that it cannot generate anything)

So if you have apps (good ones eh) it would just be so nice (with good quality, similar to bing actually..)

Found similar threads in the past but the apps mentioned are not free anymore and I wanted a refresher of the list.

Just looking to have fun - no need for maximum quality. Keen to use other pictures as base (i.e. faces of my friends/other famous people), so image to image generation and not just text prompts. Also keen to know what are the cheapest options available if free options don't provide the minimum service I "need".

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance!

As my title indicates, there is frustration.

I am not looking for anything crazy, just making some basic still images.

The problem I have with many of them: They aren't actually free, after 1 image or 1 edit you need to pay. Lame. It rarely gets it right the first time so it needs edits.

Additionally, oftentimes the edits fail hard. I'll ask it to say add a flag in the background, and it opts to change the foreground entirely, even when told 'make no other changes'.

So is there a free AI image generator that actually works?

TYIA!

Hi i am looking for an ai image generator which is free or atleast cheap and generates good quality images.

I’m even willing to go for a paid image generator, given that it understands the prompt well and i have atleast a few free trials to check out if the results are worth the money

I am looking for a FREE AI image generator with image prompt option, not just text-to-image.
Thanks in advance.

Looking for any good apps for AI image generation. Very new to this field lol but I found Grok so far to be decent.

What are the best free apps for generating images? I sometimes want to generate a custom image for my video because the default ones are too generic and doesn't fit the song. What do you guys use?

Like you know ? Some great ones that are free , like say stabel diffusion models hosting or like others

What do people recommend? I have used Midjourney and debating on asking my company if they'd be willing to pay a monthly subscription so I can more easily populate courses with imagery. Are there better options?

I need a website for my GF, so she can experiment with AI generated concept arts.

Do you have any recommendations?

I’m planning a cute birthday gift for my wife — she’s a total travel buff!
I want to create images of her traveling around the world (kind of as a fun manifestation gift).

I’m looking for the best AI image generator that can make high-quality, realistic photos without distorting her face. I know Midjourney is great — and since I want to make around 30 images, I’d also love some suggestions for free or affordable alternatives that can still deliver good results.

Any recommendations or tips would be amazing!

Is it Flux? Flux does a great job at generating good and clear hand effects, but I always feel that its creations are easily recognizable as AI-generated.

Does anyone have any good recommendations?

I’ve been trying out a few AI image tools lately, but I’m still looking for something that gives really sharp, consistent results without needing super-complicated prompts. I’ve used Midjourney and imini AI so far, Midjourney is great for style and creativity, while imini is a bit more straightforward when I just want a clean, fast image from a prompt.

Curious what everyone else is using these days. Are there any image generators or newer models that have been giving you noticeably better results?
