Hi! I found this post searching "vector blues." There is now an option on the vector blues image generator to return to the "legacy model" generator. Is the legacy model going to continue to be offered indefinitely? The new generator's images don't suit my use cases and I use vector blues whenever I use the AI image option. I'm afraid Articulate will stop offering the old model in time, and I want to put in a plug for keeping the old one!

Hello ErikaShaffer​, 

Thanks so much for explaining how important Vector Blues and the legacy model are to your workflow. We don’t have any updates to share at this time about long-term plans for the legacy generator, but I understand your reason for reaching out. I have shared your feedback with the team.

If you’re open to it, I’d love to learn more about your experience and what specifically isn’t working for you with the new generator. I’m happy to pass that context along to the team.

Thanks again for sharing your feedback with us!

    Hi, LucianaPiazza​ 

    Thanks for your reply! The characters on the legacy model are more expressive. Our courses are often lighthearted, so the cartoony characters in the legacy model come in handy for eye candy and calling out important text. 

    Here's an example of the difference when I ask the generator "woman with brown skin holding dog on leash" I get these results:

    Legacy:

    New:

    While the new model produces a visually appealing image, the characters don't show much expression. The legacy model, to me, produces warmer characters.

    Thanks for passing this on!

      Hello ErikaShaffer​, 

      Thank you for providing these specific examples in both models! I've shared them with the team.

      I understand you're looking to have more specific expressions in the new model. I am successful when sharing the specific expression needed (ex., light-hearted expression) in the description details. 

      Here's a closer look at this in action! 

      Please let me know if adding more details to your prompt improves your experience using the new model. Happy to learn more about your experience!
