I’m obviously late for the banner contest but I still think this awesome community also deserves an awesome banner 😁
This is the first time I use Midjourney AI and I’m myself very impressed with the results. I have a paid membership so there should be no issues regarding licensing.
Here’s my prompt:
Design a captivating 1280x400 banner for an Android community that showcases the vibrant colors of the Google logo in a tile-based background. In the center of the banner, position the official green Android mascot, surrounded by adorable and playful lemmings. Ensure that the overall design promotes a sense of community, excitement, and inclusiveness, inviting Android enthusiasts to join and engage in the community’s activities. Let your creativity flow to deliver an eye-catching and memorable visual representation of the Android community’s spirit.
(yeah it just ignored the lemmings and the tile thing, basically most of the prompt 🙃 but the result is still cute)
I can try to have it zoom out even further if necessary.
EDIT:
latest edit using GIMP to the version with the kawaii trees:
Well, the submission is a bit late… but I am pretty bored of the current banner, so if everyone’s OK with it then we’ll keep running it here until we figure something out.
Very cute I like it
Wow it’s your first time using Midjourney? That’s pretty good!
yup, as you can see from my prompt the result has almost nothing to do with it (except the wholesomeness and probably the inclusiveness it took seriously since there are a few androids missing one or two hands 😅), but it still produced wholesome banners (modulo small GIMP edits to remove tree tiddies) so I’m definitely not disappointed 😁
That’s one of the reasons why I love Midjourney lol… Sometimes it’s nothing near what you wanted but it turns out great anyway!
I think the version You put in the post is the best out of them.
If there’s no real complaints or nitpicks about it then I’ll try to have it up by tomorrow morning.
Annd… done. Sorry it took so long.
you mean the one with the kawaii trees at the end of the post? or the one in the thumbnail (which sadly doesn’t have the right aspect ratio)?
I mean the one at the end of the post.
I’m trying with a better aspect ratio right now
proposal #2:
proposal #3:
proposal #4:
For proposal #4 it decided that the trees needed tiddies.
AI “art” is not art.
“Photography” art is not art.
Oh for Pete’s sakes. Art is art.
Never pretended that to be the case, but IMO still better than using the current stretched image (possibly without proper authorization) from: https://technext24.com/2021/04/22/the-new-android-12-app-animations-is-beautiful-but-may-drain-batteries-faster/. This is simply a case where something objectively good is better than nothing at all. There was a contest and no one proposed a banner.
Instead of turning this into “AI bad” attacks, it would be preferable if you showed us your real art by proposing a beautiful banner for this community :-)
Not that it really matters much, but here’s the original version of the image: https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/photo/google-android-phone-characters-group-royalty-free-image/458243847
Yeah, AI can really help with covering gaps. I dig the banner. If something better comes up, then cool, it can be replaced. Until then tho 😜
