Stylize

The Midjourney Bot has been trained to produce images that favor artistic color, composition, and forms. The --stylize or --s parameter influences how strongly this training is applied.

Low stylization values produce images that closely match the prompt but are less artistic. High stylization values create images that are very artistic but less connected to the prompt.

--stylize's default value is 100 and accepts integer values 0–1000 when using the [default model].

Different Midjourney Version Models have different stylize ranges.

Influence of Stylize on Model Version 5.2

prompt example: /imagine prompt colorful risograph of a fig --s 100

--stylize 0

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=0

--stylize 50

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=50 Equal to πŸ–ŒοΈ Style Low

--stylize 100 (default)

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=100 Equal to πŸ–ŒοΈ Style Med

--stylize 250

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=250 Equal to πŸ–ŒοΈ Style High

--stylize 500

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=500

--stylize 750

Midjourney style parameter example. Image of the prompt colorful risograph of a fig stylize=750 Equal to πŸ–ŒοΈ Style Very High

Midjourney Model Version 5.2 is more sensitive to different stylize values. If you previously used very high stylize values, they may require adjustment for this model version. We recommend reducing your stylize value to 20% of your previous value. For example, if you were using --stylize 1000 --V 5.1, try using --stylize 200 instead.

How to Switch Stylization Values

Use the Stylize Parameter

Add --stylize <value> or --s <value> to the end of your prompt.
