Firefly v2 was creating better abstract paintings and drawings compared to the currently active versions. Please make older versions available again. These versions cannot fully integrate style and composition.

Hi Kartika,

After a long time of not using Firefly, I have come back to it only to find that I can no longer use Firefly Image 2. This is a major problem as none of the newer versions create the style of illustration anywhere near like how it used to and I need to be able to get the same aesthetic style again for a revival of a huge project that requires a series of illustrations in a continuation of the style. Is there any way that I can still access Firefly 2?

Kind regards,

Mark

Hey @nomadgraphique,

 

Thanks for reaching out, and welcome back to Firefly. It’s great to have you here again.
I totally understand how important consistency in style can be, especially when you're reviving a big project. It sounds like Firefly Image 2 really clicked with your creative vision, and I’m really sorry to hear that the newer versions aren’t quite hitting the same note for you.
Right now, earlier versions like Firefly Image 2 aren’t available to access. We’d love to help you get as close as possible to the style you’re after. If you can share a few examples or describe the look you’re going for, we can try to guide you on how to tweak prompts or settings in the current version to better match that aesthetic.
We’re here to support your creative flow.

Yes! Model 2 is much better at abstraction and consequently more forgiving of AI weirdness and glitches. I often generate reference images with Model 2 and then run them through Model 3 for texturizing and color effects. Adobe, please keep your legacy models avaialble or find a way to preserve their aestehtic qualities within the newer models. Not every new feature is an improvement.

I still love model 1 and would love to have it back! 😂

Model 1 was the best for patterns.
