## Open the AI Image maker

1. Select **Create new** in the left navigation.
2. Choose **AI Image**.

> **Screenshot at this point on the web page (image not included):** The Create new menu with AI Image at the top of the list

The **Create image** window opens. You write on the left and see your images on the right.

## Describe your image

Type what you want in **Prompt**. Say what the image shows, the mood, and where you will use it. For example, "A wide banner of a coffee pouch on a wooden desk, warm morning light."

Then pick a look from **Styles**, such as **Studio Product Shot**, **Photo Realistic** or **Illustration**. Leave it on **Auto** if you are not sure.

1. Write your idea in **Prompt**.
2. Pick a card in **Styles**. Choose the look and feel you want, or leave it on **Auto** and let the AI decide.
3. Set **Quantity** from 1 to 4. You get that many variations from the same prompt. Then select **Generate**.

## Choose the size and quality

Select the settings icon next to **Quickstarts** to change the shape, quality and file type. Each option has an info icon. Hover over it to see what it is best for.

| Size | Best for |
|---|---|
| 1:1 Square | Thumbnails, featured images and general use |
| 4:5 Portrait | Feed posts on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Threads |
| 2:3 Portrait | Pinterest pins, cover art and tall images |
| 9:16 Story | TikTok, Instagram Stories and Reels, and full-screen vertical content |
| 4:3 Landscape | Article images, presentations and balanced landscape layouts |
| 16:9 Widescreen | Cinematic layouts, video covers and widescreen headers |
| 3:1 Banner | Headers, campaign strips and narrow banners |

- **Low (Fastest):** quick drafts, thumbnails and tests.
- **Medium:** stronger results without a long wait.
- **High:** polished final images where detail matters most.
- **Auto:** the AI balances speed and quality for you.
- **Remove background:** works best for simple images where you want the main subject by itself.
- **Format:** PNG, JPEG or WEBP.

Higher quality costs more credits per image. Low costs 15, Medium costs 20, and High or Auto costs 30.

## Use your brand in the image

Open **Customization** to add reference images and turn on your Brand Guide. Then tell the AI in your prompt how to use them. Files you add from your device are used for that image only and are not saved to your Library. To add a logo, see [how to add your logo or photos to an AI image](https://docs.selljam.ai/images/add-your-logo-to-an-image.md).

## Find and use your images

Your new images appear in the **Generated** tab. Hover over an image to copy it, download it, make changes, open it full screen or delete it.

Each image also saves to your Library. If saving fails, you see a message. Download the image before you close the window.

To change an image after it is made, see [how to edit an image with AI without starting over](https://docs.selljam.ai/images/edit-an-ai-image.md).
