What You Can Do With Flux Kontext

Flux Kontext is pretty good at:

• Style Transfer: Convert photos to different art styles (watercolor, oil painting, sketches)
• Object/Clothing Changes: Modify hairstyles, add accessories, change colors
• Text Editing: Replace text in signs, posters, and labels
• Background Swapping: Change environments while preserving subjects
• Character Consistency: Maintain identity across multiple edits

Best Practices For Prompts

♣ Be Specific

• Use clear, detailed language with exact colors and descriptions
• Avoid vague terms like “make it better”
• Name subjects directly: “the woman with short black hair” vs. “she”

♣ Preserve Intentionally

• Specify what should stay the same: “while keeping the same facial features”
• Use “maintain the original composition” to preserve layout
• For background changes: “Change the background to a beach while keeping the person in the exact same position”

♣ Text Editing Tips

• Use quotation marks: “replace ‘old text’ with ‘new text’”
• Stick to readable fonts
• Match text length when possible to preserve layout

♣ Style Transfer

• Be specific about artistic styles: “impressionist painting” not “artistic”
• Reference known movements: “Renaissance” or “1960s pop art”
• Describe key traits: “visible brushstrokes, thick paint texture”

♣ Complex Edits

• Break into smaller steps for better results
• Start simple and iterate
• Use descriptive action verbs instead of “transform” for more control
