Uh Vault boy ya doin’ good? Been sucken up rads through a silly straw?

I think that there’s some way to get either Midjourney or Bing to reliably produce human-specified text labels correctly; I’ve seen people do it in some images on here.

I use Stable Diffusion, don’t know of a way to do that – I tend to end up with some missing letters and such too – but I’m pretty sure that I’ve seen some people here consistently pull it off on some proprietary AI image generator, where they specify the text.

EDIT: Well, there’s ControlNet in SD but that’s kind of a time-intensive way to do it. You’d need to create the outline of the text ahead-of-time. It can be useful for if you want some elaborate effect that is easy for SD but hard for an image editor, like text formed out of a cloud or something. But for simple text like this, in SD, it’s probably easier to just remove the text via one of various methods and then just re-add the desired text in an image editor.

I do hope that improving on this is one of the next things to be generally rolled-out; it’s pretty impressive how well existing systems can select and incorporate text. I just want a mechanism that allows more-control over specifying what text shows up.

If anyone here does regularly embed text in their images, what system do you use, and how do you do it?
