There are times when you have trouble coming up with words to type in a prompt. This article is for you to use in such cases. I have compiled the prompts by genre. The samples are generated using SDXL’s Animagine XL V3.1. We will not introduce model-specific prompts, so you will be able to use them for a variety of models. The prompt is marked and can be copied by clicking on it.
