Describe the picture you want, and FetchskiAI makes up to 4 options to choose from. You can also give it one of your photos to change. Nothing goes into your library until you save it. Who can do this: Editors, Admins and Owners. Contributors and Viewers don’t have image generation.

Before you start

  • FetchskiAI must be set up and turned on for your site.
    • If the window shows FetchskiAI is turned off instead of the form, ask an Admin or Owner to turn it on. See FetchskiAI settings.
    • If it shows FetchskiAI isn’t set up yet, contact Fetchski Support.
  • Each image uses some of your site’s AI budget, whether you save it or not. Start with 1 or 2 options while you find the right description. See Usage and budget.

Open it

Start from any of 3 places. The window is the same in each, titled AI Image Generation.
  • AI Image Studio: in the toolbar, choose FetchskiAI → AI Image Studio. Or open the command palette (⌘K, or Ctrl+K on Windows) and choose AI Image Studio, or press T then M. Saved images go to your Images library.
  • The Images library: open Images from the command palette, then choose AI Image Generation at the top right. Saved images go to the library.
  • A blog post’s featured image: in the post’s Content tab, choose AI Image Generation on the Featured image row. The saved image becomes the post’s featured image.
The FetchskiAI menu open in the toolbar with AI Image Studio ringed.The FetchskiAI menu open in the toolbar with AI Image Studio ringed.

AI Image Studio is in the FetchskiAI menu.

Make an image

1

Describe the image

Under Describe the image, say what you want, in plain words: what’s in the picture, how close or wide the view is, the light, and the feeling. For Parker’s, you might write “Three puppies playing tug-of-war on green turf in a bright indoor play yard, seen from their eye level, soft morning light, happy and playful.”The box shows its own example too: “A wide, sunlit workshop interior, warm neutral tones, shot on 35mm.” You don’t need camera words like those. Describe it as you’d tell a friend.
2

Set the options

Under Options, choose How many to generate (up to 4, or fewer on some models). If the box is grayed out with “This model generates one image per run.”, you get one image each time.Other options, such as size or shape, depend on the Model at the top: the AI engine that draws the picture. Each one draws a little differently. If you’re not sure, leave an option on Model default.

Generate

Choose Generate image (or Generate 2 images, and so on). It usually takes a few seconds. Keep the window open.
The AI Image Generation window with the puppies prompt typed and Generate 4 images, the run's model, cost and tokens above 4 results in a grid, the second one selected, each with Edit this and Discard.The AI Image Generation window with the puppies prompt typed and Generate 4 images, the run's model, cost and tokens above 4 results in a grid, the second one selected, each with Edit this and Discard.

Select the result you like. Choose Discard on any you don’t want.

Save it

Under Save to library, give it a Title (the name you’ll find it by in your library). Then write its Alt text: a short description of the picture for people who can’t see it, read aloud by screen readers. For example, “Three puppies tugging a rope toy on green turf”. Choose a Folder (or No folder), then choose Save to library.Saving closes the window, so you keep one image each time. To keep another of the options, generate again and save that one.

Use it on your site

The image is now in your Images library, but not on any page yet. Edit a section that shows a picture, choose the image from your library there, then save or publish the page. See The media library and Drafts, publishing and scheduling.
The Save to library panel filled in: Title "Puppies playing tug-of-war", Alt text "Three puppies tugging a rope toy on green turf", Folder "Playland", with Save to library ringed in the window's header and the selected result above.The Save to library panel filled in: Title "Puppies playing tug-of-war", Alt text "Three puppies tugging a rope toy on green turf", Folder "Playland", with Save to library ringed in the window's header and the selected result above.

Name it, describe it for screen readers, and save.

Change an image

Change a picture you already have, instead of starting from scratch.
1

Choose the picture

Under Source image, choose Choose from library, then choose a photo. If the photo is still on your computer, upload it to the library in that window first (see Upload images). Or choose Edit this on a result you just made.
2

Describe the change

For example: “Make the background a sunny backyard.”
3

Generate

Choose Generate edit. Save the result as above.
While a source image is attached, the Model list shows only models that can change pictures. To start fresh again, choose Remove beside the source image. If the post already has a featured image, the window opens with it as the Source image, ready to change. To start from scratch, choose Remove. When you save from the Featured image row, the new image goes into your library and into the post’s Featured image in the open editor. The row then shows Image applied ✓, with Undo if you change your mind. The post itself isn’t saved yet. Save it as a draft (More save options → Save Draft) or publish it, as for any post. See Blog posts, categories and authors.

The image goes straight onto the post, with Undo.

Good to know

  • Write good alt text. It describes the picture to people using a screen reader. Say what’s in it, not “image of”.
  • Your choices are remembered. The window keeps the last model and options you used, for you only.
  • Options change with the model. If an option disappears after you switch models, that model doesn’t offer it.
  • Blog posts can ask for images too. When you generate a blog post, turn on Create images for this post.

Troubleshooting

The full message reads “That image has expired. Generate it again to save it.” Results you don’t save are kept for 30 minutes at most, and closing the window loses them. Generate it again, then save it before you close the window.
Your site has used its AI budget. Contact Fetchski Support to add more. See Usage and budget.
Image generation is for Editors, Admins and Owners. Ask an Admin for an Editor role if you need it. While FetchskiAI is off, the Featured image row shows “AI image generation isn’t configured. Set it up in FetchskiAI settings.” instead of the button.
