Midjourney Guides

Thirty-nine Midjourney guides, published on midlibrary.io since November 2022 and indexed here. Midlibrary lists them newest-first, which is the right order for a feed and the wrong order for learning something. These are grouped by what you came for instead.

Comparisons & Tool Reviews

Four pieces that put Midjourney next to something else and report the difference — a rival model, a 3D converter, an upscaler, a caption tool. The comparison is the method: none of these is a feature tour, and each one ends somewhere a spec sheet would not take you.

Model Coverage

Eleven reviews running from V4 to V6, plus the two niji releases and the features that came and went with them. Age is not a defect here: a V5.1 review is a historical document rather than a buying guide, and it is worth reading for exactly that reason.

Parameters & Techniques

Eight breakdowns of things you type into a prompt, and the mechanisms underneath them. This is the group where publication date matters least — --chaos behaves the same way today as it did in March 2023, and most of what is here survived every model change since.

Craft & Projects

Twelve walkthroughs that start from a thing being made rather than a feature being explained: prints, tattoos, postcards, animation, masks, work for photographers. Read these when you already know what you want to end up with and would rather someone else made the mistakes first.

The Midlibrary Method

Four pieces about the library itself — how it is organised, how the benchmark works, what SREF codes are underneath, and the course built on top. If you use Midlibrary regularly and have never read these, they will change how you search it.

About this index

The grouping is a judgment call, and the judgment is the point — it is the thing a flat grid cannot give you. Thirty-three of the thirty-nine guides predate 2025, and a guide’s age tells you very little about whether it answers your question. Sorted by date, a still-current parameter breakdown and a superseded model review sit side by side with nothing to tell them apart.

Who this is for: anyone past the first week with Midjourney who wants to go deeper on one specific thing rather than browse. If you already know which style you want, you do not need a guide — you need Midlibrary’s style library, which indexes thousands of them with real reference renders. If you want to know why a parameter behaves the way it does, or whether a model release changed something you rely on, start above.

Midjournr is the media half of the same project: comparisons, reviews, experiments, and opinion about Midjourney and the tools around it. Midlibrary is the reference half — styles, SREF codes, benchmarks. The guides currently sit on the reference side, because that is where they were written and where they rank. Every card above links out to midlibrary.io, and will keep doing so.
