Step-by-Step Guide

First, let's take a look at how BlueWillow works. It's important to understand the basics before diving into the creative work. BlueWillow works in principle just like Midjourney and can also be used via Discord. To enhance the user experience, it is advisable to set up your own Discord server.

Step 1: Create Your Own Discord Server

To optimize your creative process, you should first create your own Discord server. This will help you maintain clarity and avoid having to scroll through the many chats of newbies.

Simply go to Discord, click on "Add Server," and choose "Create Your Own." You can name the server as you like, for example, "Blues Willow Course." This is the first step in effectively creating and managing your artworks.

Step 2: Add the BlueWillow Bot

After creating your server, you need to add the BlueWillow bot. Go to the official BlueWillow server, click on the human icon, and then select the server you created to add the bot. Make sure to grant the necessary permissions for the bot to function correctly.

Step 3: Use the Slash Commands

Once the bot is added, you can start creating your images. Begin your inputs with a slash (/) followed by the command "Image" to enter your prompt. It doesn't matter whether you write your prompt in German or English. It's essential to remain creative and try out different approaches.

Step 4: Check the Creation Process

Note that BlueWillow does not show a progress indicator like Midjourney does. This may be confusing at first, but don't be discouraged. The bot will give you feedback if something is not working. Just wait until the image is generated.

Step 5: Analyze Your Results

After the image is created, you can examine it more closely. You have various options to modify the image. Click on "U2" if you like the image, or "V2" if you want an alternative version. This way, you can vary and customize the image according to your preferences.

Step 6: Save Your Images

If you are satisfied with the result, you can easily save the image. Right-click on it and choose "Save Image As." The image will be saved in very high quality, which you can use for your creative projects.

Step 7: Invite Friends

A cool aspect of having your own server is that you can invite friends. You can collaborate on your creations and exchange feedback. This not only promotes creativity but also brings in many new ideas and perspectives into the process.

Summary

In this tutorial, you have learned how to use BlueWillow as a creative platform. You have learned how to create your own Discord server, add the BlueWillow bot, generate images, and finally save them. Let your creativity flow and see what unique artworks you can create with BlueWillow.
