Creating images for your Joomla content

Similar to creating text content such as blog posts or newsletters, this tab lets you create and modify images based on a description you provide.

The general workflow is:

  1. Enter a description of the desired image, select dimensions or aspect-ratio, possibly add more instructions to make sure the AI understands you well, then request the image creation
  2. Possibly ask AI to modify the generated image to suit your needs and request image modification
  3. Repeat #2 until you're happy with the image
  4. Click one button to Save the image to your server
  5. Click one button to Use the image in your content

Select any image in editor to modify it

You can also modify existing images that appear in your content, even if they were not generated by 4AI.

You can do that by selecting the image in your editor before opening the 4AI assistant.

4AI offers a choice of models from Google or OpenAI to modify images.

They differ in speed, quality and pricing. Please refer to each providers documentation for up-to-date details about these models.

At this point, we recommend using Nano Banana as it's both state-of-the-art in terms of performance and understanding your requests, but also faster and cheaper. Note however that this is a changing topics, with new models coming out from both suppliers at rapid pace.

AI providers usually create images in the png format, that is not well suited for use on a website due to its size.

When you save an image, 4AI converts it to multiple sizes and into the jpg and webp formats to use in your website with the best performance.

Create or modify an image

Each model family has slightly different options and features but the general process is the same, and described in Create/modify images

Once you have created or modified an image, you can save it and use it in your content easily.
