Step 5: Upscale or Create Variations
After the grid of images is ready, two rows of buttons become visible — providing you with even more control over your project.
U buttons: upscale the size of an image while preserving its quality.
V buttons are for creating slight variations of a chosen grid image.
The numbers 1–4 represent images coming from the top left clockwise
The 🔄 (re-roll): reruns a Job. It reruns the prompt and you’ll get a whole new grid of images!
Step 6: Rate Images
Make Variations: Generates an upgraded version of the image and produces four choices in a new grid layout.
Beta/Light Upscale Redo: redo the upscale with a different upscaler model.
Web: Open the image in your gallery
😖 😒 🙂 😍 Rate Images: Rate upscaled images by simply clicking on a smiley button — it’s that easy! And to top it off, the 1,000 best image raters will get an hour of free Fast Mode time each day.
Step 7: Save Your Image
Just click on the image to open it and then right-click to save. Or, if you’re using mobile, long tap the image and you’ll see a download icon in the top right corner. Easy peasy!
