What is Vaporwave SREF style

This aesthetic is deeply rooted in nostalgia for the 1980s and early 1990s digital culture, often known as Vaporwave. It is characterized by a dominant palette of neon pinks, magentas, and cyan blues, blending tropical elements like palm trees with futuristic or glitchy digital landscapes, sometimes featuring stylized celestial bodies. When crafting a **Midjourney** **prompt**, focusing on saturated colors, neon glow, and retro-futuristic motifs is crucial to capture this distinctive **style**. The images feel simultaneously dreamy and artificially constructed, evoking a melancholic yet serene atmosphere.

Vaporwave Prompt Ideas

  • Vaporwave cityscape at sunset, glowing neon grid floor reflecting palm trees, large stylized planet in the pink sky, highly detailed illustration
  • Close-up portrait of a woman with black bob hair and round pink glasses, soft knit sweater, surrounded by magenta neon light reflections, cinematic lighting
  • Pastel pink ceramic teapot and cup on a white tiled table, glowing geometric pink crystals nearby, subtle screen glow in background, highly aesthetic composition
  • Dreamy interior scene, indoor plants illuminated by glowing Japanese text on a blurred screen, soft focus, hyper-saturated pink and blue tones

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.

Which versions support style reference?

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.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
