To add text to images and videos consider using:

Adobe Express it is a free App with paid options. There are many wonderful features like animating text, changing the colour, size, font, and much more.

Adobe Firefly Team - Can we get some positive feedback from you. The original post was made 2 years ago.

I think that is plenty of time for you to digest and see that users in general have a problem in the way credits are swallowed up creating worthless video that cannot be used.

This is not a political forum - it is a forum to help users and for Adobe to take constructive comment and ensure your product offer is best in class.

Please can we get some response from you.

 

Thank you

I agree; the credit top-up is insufficient for the standard subscription, not to mention the technical glitches that occur when an image fails to generate. There should also be a time code, as the process can sometimes take a very long time. Another important point: image resolution is very poor compared to the sofware Enhance, which yields better results.

I am having this exact same issue, and it is becoming a costly exercise. I am specifically uploading a PNG file where the subject is already masked out on a white background. Despite all my attempts to find the right wording to strictly change only the background, Firefly still alters my main subject. I end up losing far too many generative credits on failed attempts, which feels incredibly frustrating on top of paying a regular Adobe subscription.

I suggest using a timeline that functions like a progress bar, since video creation often involves long wait times.

It sounds like a nice idea, but it wouldn’t work because people would soon learn to screen grab and upscale with apps like Topaz Gigapixel and Topaz Video.

I hear what you are saying but if the prompts worked then it would be acceptable. I say this with all respect, but I’m afraid Firefly produces very poor results. Other AI’s understand my prompts.
