I cannot generate a prompt, I always get this problem. 

Correct answer N8.

Hey @Oliver_BAR1418,


Start with your background
inside a spaceship cafeteria made up of many control panels and computer screens, with a dramatic color palette, featuring faded colors, and analog-inspired imperfections such as light leak

Then choose an image from the generated background images as a style reference:
Next use the second (begining) part of your prompt 
A revised version of your prompt:
A vintage instant film-style photograph of blonde cyborg woman biting into a juice country style cheeseburger on a futuristic doctor chair in the center, long legs thin wearing white shorts long hair, vogue retro futuristic.

Some parts of your prompt could be inappropriate.

Same issue here! I think it's flagging E.T. because it's a copyrighted character. Try typing a general description instead, like "friendly alien with big eyes and long neck," instead of naming E.T. directly. Also don't upload the original movie photo that might be triggering it too. Try a new session and see if it works better.

I keep getting the same issue. I added a photo of E.T. from the 80s movie that I am trying to turn to an outline with less detail for a tattoo and I assume the website thinks E.T. is inappropriate.  I got it generate 1 image but i wanted a little more detail added.

E.T. is a copyrighted character, which means Firefly won't edit it. Popular likenesses (Mickey Mouse, celebrities, etc.) aren't allowed to protect the original artists' work and people's likenesses. I'm surprised you got one image out of it!


Hope this helps clarify,

I figured as much, yet I used it create tons of art based around pokemon.

Here the two prompt i tried and gives this error message:

 

1) Beautiful hot blonde very pregnant cyborg woman on a futuristic doctor chair in the center, long legs thinwearing white shorts and crop and long hair, many tubes and wires attached to stomach pregnancy, the wires are an octopus, vogue retrofuturistic aesthetics. She is inside a spaceship hospital made up of many control panels and computer screens, with a dramatic color palette, high resolution, high contrast, and vibrant colors, a nurse gives injection , in the style of cinematic photography.

 

2) A vintage instant film-style photograph of a beautiful hot blonde cyborg woman biting into a juice country style cheeseburger on a futuristic doctor chair in the center, long legs thin wearing white shorts and crop and long hair, vogue retro futuristic aesthetics. She is inside a spaceship cafeteria made up of many control panels and computer screens, with a dramatic color palette, featuring faded colors, and analog-inspired imperfections such as light leaks, subtle fingerprints, and gentle motion blur.

 
 I hope to find out why this prompt can't generate.
