What is Absolute Contrast SREF style

This style emphasizes extreme visual drama through the complete absence of mid-tones, relying purely on stark black and white shapes, much like traditional woodcuts or silkscreen prints. When generating images in **Midjourney**, specifying "high contrast black and white" ensures graphic impact and strong silhouettes. A successful **prompt** utilizing this aesthetic should focus on composition and texture rather than color, lending itself well to moody scenes, bold portraits, and graphic design elements, capturing the essence of powerful visual simplification.

  • Portrait of a determined female warrior, expressive textured ink brushwork, high contrast black and white illustration
  • Intricate clockwork mechanism revealed inside an antique pocket watch, vector line art reduced to binary shapes

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.
