Negative Prompts
The negative prompt tells the AI what to avoid. It's your tool for removing unwanted elements from the final image.
How It Works
The system already applies default negative prompts to handle common issues - things like bad anatomy, extra limbs, deformed faces, and low-quality artifacts are filtered automatically. You don't need to add these yourself.
When to Use It
Focus your negative prompt on specific things you don't want rather than generic quality tags. Common use cases:
| Goal | Negative Prompt |
|---|---|
| Exclude a gender | female or male |
| Avoid anthro/feral mix | anthro or feral |
| No human features | human body, humanoid |
| No clothing | clothes, clothing |
| Remove specific feature | wings, horns, tail |
| Keep it SFW | nsfw, explicit, nude |
Examples
If you're generating a feral wolf and want to make sure it stays feral:
Negative: anthro, femaleIf you're generating an MLP character and want to avoid human-like features:
Negative: male, anthro, (human body, humanoid:1.2), breasts, handsTips
- Keep your negative prompt short and focused - don't dump dozens of tags
- You can use emphasis in negatives too:
(unwanted tag:1.3)makes the exclusion stronger - If something keeps appearing despite being in the negative, try increasing its weight
- Don't add quality-related negatives (blurry, low quality, etc.) - the system handles those
