Questions

What is ukiyo-e?

Ukiyo-e is a genre of Japanese woodblock printing from the Edo period, known for flat colour, bold outlines and scenes of landscapes and daily life.

Does a style cost extra credits?

No. A style only adds words to the prompt that is sent, so you pay the normal price: for example 2 credits for a Seedream 4.5 image.

Does the style replace my prompt?

No. Your prompt stays exactly as you wrote it. The style is added on top to set the look.

Can I switch styles on the same prompt?

Yes. Keep the prompt, pick a different style and generate again to compare looks side by side.
