Intro

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by and reading my small blog. In this post, I want to explore how

Artificial Intelligence⁠

(AI) tools have the potential to make it easier for people to bring their ideas to life in the world of creativity.

This post was made with the help of the AI tools like
`Poe`⁠
,
`QuillBot`⁠
, and
`Rytr`⁠
.

1.
`Midjourney`⁠
: In Search of Ideas

AI was the most discussed topic at the end of 2022. With so much positive feedback, I wanted to play around with Midjourney as well. To my surprise, I was impressed with the results I was able to produce, even with just using basic prompts. Don’t believe it? Take a moment and go to the

Community Showcase⁠

page to see the power of AI.

The next day, I began to think about how I could use AI in a simple creative project just for fun. My first thought (actually, it was my best thought) was to make a landing page for a beekeeping farm. Long story short, my father has a huge bee farm.

So, I put all my thoughts in the following prompt:

beautiful landing with a jar of honey and bees flying over the jar and summer flowers on the white background, design, ux/ui, ux, ui --ar 3:2 --v 4 --q 2

And here was the first result:

⁠

Only the 3rd image was pretty good and I decided to use it as the base to create new images using the

variation command⁠

⁠

Nah, it came out the same. Then I

upscaled⁠

the 3rd image from the previous result and got:

⁠

Awesome result! Looking ahead, I’ll use this image for this fun project. Also, one more good example that I was able to create later on:

beautiful landing with a jar of honey and cute bees flying over the jar with a sunflower and summer flowers behind the jar on the white background, design, ux/ui, ux, ui --ar 3:2 --v 4 --q 2

⁠

Sick results! Midjourney is a source of ideas, in my opinion. I bought a subscription to play around even more.

2.
`Photoshop`⁠
: Prepare and Polish Assets

Now that I had the main image, I used it to make a color palette:

⁠

⁠

#F8EEEC, #F1AA3A, #C76300, #4C3924, #978970

These are the 5 “friendly” colors which will be on the page.

The next step was to design a logo. I didn’t manage to produce anything good with Midjourney, so I looked at

Pinterest⁠

to draw an idea. Actually, it’s really time-consuming work, but I wanted to make it as simple as possible:

⁠

Sign Painter font⁠

⁠

And what is the most important, I polished the main image a bit:

⁠

Additionally, some more images were created and edited that will be shown later in the final result. Stay tuned!

3. Text: Hero Title, Tagline, and etc.

Unfortunately,

ChatGPT⁠

wasn’t available in Ukraine at that time that’s why I spent days to get something reasonable. So, I come up with the following hero title:

The Taste of Sloboda

⁠

Slobozhanshchyna⁠

(or simply Sloboda) is a historical region in Ukraine that is famous for beekeeping products. More info will be in the About Us sections.

The tagline is straightforward:

Wholesome and fulfilling tested by time

It’s a well-known fact that honey is sweet and healthy especially if we’re talking about Ukrainian honey.

And call to action:

Order Now

After about a week or so of writing the above text, I sent it to my friend. In short, the response was:

⁠

Now I have -1 friend and only one thing is left - create a page.

4.
`Editor X`⁠
: Implement the Idea

It was an obvious choice for me, I needed a no-code platform to complete the project. I chose Editor X because of one important requirement - ease of use. Starting with it was a breeze and I found it to be intuitive even for a beginner like myself.

And here is the beta version -

⁠

⁠

The main section.

Working on the page, I found a few advantages of the no-code platform that personally I like:

It has out-of-the-box support for different devices, allowing developers to create applications that work seamlessly across all devices:

⁠

⁠

(Better to use a dark theme otherwise the white colors will merge)

Wide range of additional tools like analytics, localization, and many more. But please pay attention to the translation because the translation of the tagline was “Benefit and pleasure tested by time”. It cool tagline for a condom page.

The Final Word

As technology continues to evolve and improve, it’s important to recognize and embrace the potential of AI to achieve the best possible outcomes. I believe AI has the power to revolutionize many aspects of our personal and professional lives now and especially in the future.

PS Update on ChatGPT

ChatGPT is now officially available in Ukraine since Feb 18, 2023, so I utilized it to create the title for this post. In the beginning, I was thinking about “The Power of AI” or “Bring Idea to Life”, but they don’t suit such a small project. ChatGPT gave me what I was looking for literally in 3 steps:
