How to Create Halftone Effects with Nano Banana Pro (The Right Way)

Many of us in the creative community, miss the grit of the darkroom, the unpredictability of a letterpress, the happy accidents of a photocopier running out of toner.

How to Create a VHS Effect with Nano Banana and Flux 2 Flex

Replicating analog imperfections in a digital space has always been the holy grail. And let’s be honest: most "VHS effects" out there are bad.

How to Use Midjourney and Nano Banana Pro for perfect images

If you’ve been following the explosion of generative AI, you’ve probably hit the same wall I have. You spend an hour tweaking a prompt in Midjourney, rolling the dice over and over. You finally get the perfect lighting, the perfect film grain, and that intangible vibe you were chasing—but the specific details are wrong. The text is gibberish. The branding is off. The prop in the subject’s hand looks like an alien artifact. So you... read more ›

Nano Banana with No Watermark? Here’s how to remove it.

The internet is full of "hacks" on how to remove the Nano Banana watermark using clone stamps or third-party erasers. Don't do that. It degrades the image quality and wastes your time. If you really need to do it manually, Photoshop's healing brush tool is usually the easiest way. But the professional workaround is simple: Use the API. When you access the Nano Banana model through an API (Application Programming Interface), you generally bypass the... read more ›

Does JSON Prompting Actually Work? Tested with Nano Banana

If you’ve been following the explosion of generative AI, you know that we're all looking for the "edge." We’re looking for that secret syntax, that perfect workflow, or that one hack that turns a chaotic rigorous process into a predictable, high-quality output.

Change the Pose of Any Photo with Nano Banana & Weavy

In the past, you had two bad options: spend five hours liquifying and puppet-warping in Photoshop until it looked "okay enough," or schedule a reshoot. Those days are over. We're now at a point where we can decouple the subject from the structure.
