I'm a newbie to Firefly. It seems pretty powerful, but my prompts seem to constantly violate guidelines, although I don't think they do.
I was trying to get it to generate a post apocalyptic looking zombie kangaroo. It kept putting clothing on it. So I asked for it without clothing and this violated guidelines. Really?? It's an animal. I haven't asked for anything anatomically correct. I just want my animals without clothing.
I'm trying to generate artwork for use with a board game that is set in a grim dark future. As such there will be weapons. But any time I try to add a gun, or even a fire axe, I seem to be in violation of the guidelines again. Are weapons totally banned?
I understand the need for guidelines, but this seems to be overly conservative.

@larrye48328188, Adobe's guidance is in this document: Adobe Generative AI User Guidelines.
It sometimes can be hard to trace a specific prompt to why it was blocked. In some cases, the blocking is a mistake in the model's blocking logic, which is why Adobe provides this reporting mechanism after pressing "thumbs down" and clicking "Feedback":
I always add a note as to why I think it is incorrectly blocked.
If you share your prompt, I am happy to tell you what I think triggered it. Based on your description, I suspect it was believed to violate "Graphic violence or gore". I am not saying it should, just that is what I suspect.
I do not work for Adobe and am not speaking for them. I think Adobe's approach differs from other AI image generators in that they want to be deeply embedded into the creative process in the corporate world. I think they believe one requirement in doing that is for the corporate world to be assured that images generated are not going to contain depictions of things on that list in the user guidelines, especially as more automation is introduced into use of Firefly (API). In doing so, it is true it will refuse to generate the artistic vision of a creator where that vision might be perfectly acceptable in the artistic world, but maybe not so much in the corporate world. I think they have been trying to find that right balance. Again, I am not speaking for Adobe on this, but as someone who has been involved with Firefly since the beginning, this to me makes the most logical sense in answering the question frequently asked here, "why was this perfectly reasonable artistic creation blocked?"

Hi Larry!
Droopy is correct! But putting clothes on a Kang is bizarre lol! What was your prompt? We can help structure it better. Guns are banned yes, weapon isn't. So when I did my series of bounty hunters I said "Laser weapon", what's Sci-Fi and dystopian, Mad Max without weapons right?
No blood, gore and violence, but great Mandalorian, dark Star Wars vibes. The last image is my favorite due to the pose. Yeah share that Kang prompt!
