Img2img
Generating an image from another image - transforming instead of creating from scratch.
Img2img (image-to-image) is a mode where the starting point is an existing image, not just a description: you upload a photo or sketch, and the model transforms it according to the prompt - changes style, lighting, adds elements, while preserving the original composition. It's a fundamental tool for working with your own material: bringing sketches to life, changing the style of product photos, variants of the same scene. The "strength" parameter of the transformation determines how much of the original survives - from gentle retouching to complete reinterpretation.
