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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/settings.md). * 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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/usage-and-budget.md). ## 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.](https://mintcdn.com/fetchski-attract-api/14u3sY83pyWdBf8G/images/cms/fetchskiai/image-generation/fetchskiai-image-generation-menu-light.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=14u3sY83pyWdBf8G\&q=85\&s=ada1d0e0ff4db8be15321fc942f4a309) 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**. **3. 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.](https://mintcdn.com/fetchski-attract-api/14u3sY83pyWdBf8G/images/cms/fetchskiai/image-generation/fetchskiai-image-generation-results-light.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=14u3sY83pyWdBf8G\&q=85\&s=36b001e7c5b385c268d9fd5adac3dd53) Choose the option you like best. **4. Choose one** Select the result you like. Choose **Discard** on any you don't want. **5. 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. **6. 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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/media/media-library.md) and [Drafts, publishing and scheduling](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/build-pages/publish-and-schedule.md). ![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.](https://mintcdn.com/fetchski-attract-api/14u3sY83pyWdBf8G/images/cms/fetchskiai/image-generation/fetchskiai-image-generation-save-light.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=14u3sY83pyWdBf8G\&q=85\&s=c258f3c79f8fb704cde7b33af0278e40) 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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/media/media-library.md#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. ## On a blog post's featured 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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/content/blog.md). ![A blog post's Content tab with the new featured image in place and the Image applied ✓ · Undo note below it.](https://mintcdn.com/fetchski-attract-api/QhbzNhrd9ENfOA6M/images/cms/fetchskiai/image-generation/fetchskiai-image-generation-featured-light.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=QhbzNhrd9ENfOA6M\&q=85\&s=9de61aa56fcc9c0c66fd7b8e9cc28bf7) 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](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/blog-posts.md), turn on **Create images for this post**. ## Troubleshooting > [accordion] That image has expired > > 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. > [accordion] This site's FetchskiAI budget is used up > > Your site has used its AI budget. Contact Fetchski Support to add more. See [Usage and budget](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/usage-and-budget.md). > [accordion] I don't see AI Image Studio or the AI Image Generation button > > 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. ## Related > [card] [The media library](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/guides/media/media-library.md) > > organize and use your images. > [card] [Generate a blog post](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/blog-posts.md) > > a whole post, with images if you like. > [card] [Good prompts](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/good-prompts.md) > > descriptions that get great pictures. > [card] [Usage and budget](https://docs.fetchski-attract.com/fetchskiai/usage-and-budget.md) > > see what AI costs.
