# Enhancing Images ## Image Enhancement Image Enhancement applies **Supernet-powered** refinement to an existing image using two tools: 1. **Creative Enhance** — creative, strength-based enhancement (can intentionally change the image) 2. **Generative Filters** — category-based “filters” powered by a next-gen editing/mixing model that keeps the subject consistent All enhancement options are designed to feel like *editing*, not re-rolling from scratch: you start from an existing image, choose an enhancement, and get a new improved variant. You can access all enhancing options from: • The Enhance menu within the app's main menu options.\ • The Enhance button on the main window's toolbar.\ • Right-click on an image.

*** ### Supernet Requirement **All Image Enhancement options run on the Sogni Supernet.**\ That means they require an active Supernet connection and consume **Spark Points**. * Spark cost is shown before you confirm an enhancement. * Cost varies based on factors like output resolution and the selected enhancement type. > Privacy note: Supernet processing is still privacy-respecting. Media is used only to run the job and deliver the result, then it’s automatically purged after a brief retention period. *** ### Creative Enhance Creative Enhance is meant for **bigger upgrades** and **creative refinement**. These enhancements can change details, styling, or rendering choices—especially at higher strengths—while still using your current image as the foundation. **Options:** * **Enhance with FLUX.1 \[schnell]** * **Enhance with Z-Image Turbo** #### Strength (Light / Mid / Heavy) Creative Enhance includes a **strength** control: * **Light**: subtle polish, safer changes * **Mid**: stronger refinement, more noticeable transformation * **Heavy**: maximum enhancement, can introduce larger creative shifts Use **Light** when you want the same image, just better.\ Use **Mid/Heavy** when you want to push style, detail, or “final look” more aggressively.

*** ### Generative Filters Generative Filters are “filters,” but they are **not traditional post-processing**. They use a **next-generation edit/mix model** to apply the chosen look while preserving: * **character identity** * **scene composition** * **overall consistency** This makes them ideal for applying structured changes (realism, tone, detail, restoration, etc.) without losing the subject. #### Categories Filters are organized into categories for discoverability: * **Realism** * **Fine Details** * **Focus** * **Blur** * **Color & Tone** * **Contrast** * **Noise** * **Resolution** * **Restoration** Each category contains multiple filter options. You don’t need to learn every filter—think of each category as a *family* of related transformations.

*** ### When to Use What Image Enhancement is especially useful when: * you like the composition, pose, or idea of an image, but it was generated with an **older model** * faces, hands, or fine details need repair * the image feels flat, synthetic, or under-realistic * you want to modernize an image without re-generating it from scratch This lets you “bring older images up to date” using newer models, while preserving the original intent and structure. **Use Creative Enhance when:** * you want a stronger upgrade or stylistic push * you’re okay with some creative change depending on strength * you want a “final pass” feel **Use Generative Filters when:** * you want targeted adjustments (tone, realism, detail, restoration, etc.) * you want to preserve character and scene consistency * you want controlled, repeatable edits *** ### Tips * If you’re happy with the composition, start with **Generative Filters** first. * If the image feels “almost there,” try **Creative Enhance (Light)** as a final pass. * If results drift too far, reduce strength or choose a more targeted filter category.
