"Something went wrong Please edit your prompt and try again."

Why does this keep randomly happening? Firefly doesn't give you any indication of why. Was it something in my prompt? Was it an problem with the program?

 

For example, I will enter a prompt and click generate. Then add some effects to tweak the image and click generate suddenly getting this error.

 

I have tried updating my browser, signing in & out but it keeps happening.

Also the blue 'Replace Image' button that appears does nothing when you click on it.

Hello @Rem_S,

Thank you for your message. I am sorry you are having this problem. 

 

Please share your prompt and any reference images and we can help figure out what the problem is. There is an idea posted here asking Adobe to highlight what words in a prompt cause rejection. Please review that and consider upvoting it: P: Show words omitted from prompt or violates content guidelines.

 

Which "blue replace image" button are you referring to? Can you show a screen shot?

Thanks,

Hello @droopydog500 

 

This is the prompt I am using: "bold, clean logo for a professional sports team, featuring a giant amazon woman holding a skull"

 

Initially the prompt works, but when I add any effects or a style reference I get the error. However if I remove the word "woman" from the prompt above it works.

 

The style reference image I am using is one from a previous firefly session that I wanted to iterate on, but kept getting the same error - prompting me to write this bug report. I have also attached a screen shot so you can see the blue "replace image" button and how it generates an image if you remove the word "woman"firefly screenshot.png

On further testing "bold, clean logo for a professional sports team, featuring a giant amazon woman looming" works as a prompt.

 

But whenever you add any verb to the prompt such as holding, squeezing, crushing, grabbing, gripping an object (e.g: "bold, clean logo for a professional sports team, featuring a giant amazon woman holding a football") the prompt fails. Its very frustrating that Adobe provides no insight as to why.

Hey @Rem_S 

I ran your prompt. On my side I had no issues the 1st run. You may have to start a new seed. 
Save the link to an image that you like. The use that image as a style ref and adjust your prompt.

Keep in mind crushing is going to go against Adobe Guidelines. grabbing, and gripping could be questionable words.
"Gaint amazon woman" could be a stereotype, as well.
When I took out "amazon", the prompt worked.

Another thing about wording, word order also matters. 

As a tip, consider adding to your prompt on a "insert colour" isolated background at the end of your prompt.

Thanks @Oh.N8 I'll keep trying different prompts. When you say against the guidelines, do you mean words like grabbing, gripping, holding violate: "The promotion, glorification, or threats of violence"? I still don't understand why the "holdong a football" prompt caused an error.

 

Also strange that 'Amazons' might be considered stereotypical as they are from Greek mythology and famously strong female warriors. I supposed adding "giant" and "female" as descriptors for an Amazonian is kind of redundant but was necessary due to issues with Firefly only generating male figures. I was hoping the use of Amazon would lead to a less modern looking figure. 

 

I really wish Adobe would include reasons as to why a prompt failed. So far Firefly has been very frustrating to use

Hey @Rem_S 

Holding a football worked for me. 
"Grabbing, gripping" could be... Unfortunately, I don't have privy to which words Firefly deems inappropriate or against Adobe guidelines. 

As mentioned, having a style or composition ref image helps considerably. Firefly is creates based on ref images very well. Even a "simple" drawing helps Firefly considerably.

Hello @Rem_S,

 

Do you get the error if you try generating without that reference image?
