@rachelharrisonsund I'm new to KDP. Can you guide me as to what you mean about adding a copywrite to the interior of your book? I'm just learning and I don't clearly understand this. Do you have a video that goes into this? If you use the basic paid level Midjourney AI to generate the colouring pages and reverse check that no other version exists, how do you add a copywrite and what should it say?
Dear, create your own server and make you life way easier! Just click on the + sign, give it a name, choose your own robot and work on your own space :)
MidJourney (especially v5) is absolutely huggeeee. I've created about 20 coloring books this year using AI and some sell quite well. It's the same as always, focus on a niche and create a great product for the best chance of getting sales.
Here's the problem I keep running into: It creates pretty small images (only 1024 pixels x 1024 pixels). When I try to upscale them with beta upscale, it adds weird detail.
Do you mind sharing if you do anything to promote them after you publish them? I would think that just creating and publishing is not enough to see the results? Does one just sit back and watch the sales come in? I have yet to see a video that shows the further steps.
I thought the whole idea of KDP was to make passive income by using your unique skills. This just shows that anyone with a computer can make their own books and don't need KDP at all.
I thank you very much for your advice at the end of the video because it was exactly my main concern. Actually, I did it even before to hear you talking about that because my sister told me to do it. She is a Graphic Designer. I went to Google to search the images I created on AI just to check out if they were somewhere else. I think your advice to reverse the image would be an extra tip to take care of your work if you want to publish and not have any issues with copyright. I mean, to make some variation from the original created in the AI in order to get more original as possible
I did and test printed. At first glance it looks very nice and the background seems to be white. but when I bring the image generated from midjourney to print, the background is not white. Have you tried printing? Do you have a way to make the background white? I tried adding ' white background' but no success.
This is very cool! I didn't know I was on a "free trial" and I ran it out doing silly experiments to see what it can do. But still, for a reasonable monthly fee, I could avoid what I'm supposed to be doing every day! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Yes, those free jobs disappear quickly! Glad you're having fun with it; be sure to read their Terms in their entirety when you use any images you create for commercial purposes, and check back often to ensure you're up to date with this quickly evolving space!
You brought up all the pictures you created on one screen and I wanted to know how you did that? I have my own account, so I don't have to search for my pics, but they are showing in a line and I would like them all together.
2:17 are you familiar with the many complaints popping up in colouring Facebook groups in regards to these AI coloring pages?. As someone who colours, I see numerous fundamental flaws on these images. I’m guessing you’d either need to be a coloring page designer or a coloring book consumer to see them. ppl just trying to sell books might not even be aware of the glaring issues. I’m guessing Amazon will be cracking down on them as the negative reviews start rolling in.
I’m in a group on Face Book for colourist & I can tell you that we are appalled at what your doing. We will be getting as much support as possible to get this stopped.
I hear Amazon are having a crackdown on the number of over similar content being dumped on their platform. Some think they might start charging sellers extra to put books on there, to try and curb the sheer deluge of AI generated books.
Even as it is, amazon is aware of the AI stuff but the fact still lies that Amazon still makes money from those books. So cracking down on those ai books might be a big loss on them because in a short period of time, AI generated drawings will overtake the traditional ones because it is easer to create and saves time.
Hello Rachel! Quick question: do you use a coloring book generated by AI in your account? Amazon allow us to do this or our account would be in danger? Yes, I agree, this AI is amazing, but if my account will be compromised, then, no thanks! Please, I’m looking forward about your answer! Have a great day!
The interior I created in this video was the first coloring book I've ever created, and I haven't published it on my account. As of yet there are no rules surrounding the use of AI on KDP, but it's something we'll all have to be mindful of as this ever-evolving space unfolds.
-go to the right side of screen - right click “midjourney bot” -click message Now you have your own “channel” - type “/settings” this will allow you to go into stealth mode allowing you to keep your creations only for your own view. Not sure if you have to have a subscription
NO, that's not what my gallery looks like. I cannot figure out how to use midJourney!!!! I've already created the Discord account. What am I doing wrong?
Interesting. I think people are expecting Amazon cracking down is the threat to this biz, but frankly, if it's this easy for you to get in and create a page in one minute, the consumer is going to catch on and generate their own in the same time. Instead of looking for free coloring pages of a princess or dragon to print off for my kids, I am just going to ask them what they want and type in the simple prompts. That is, till they start typing in their own. I think this business model already is obsolete.
by this logic the fact that you can now generate music with AI means that all music is obsolete because people can just go onto one of the apps and generate what music they want. Also you can harvest nettles from the hedge so by now selling nettle tea bags shouldn't be a thing - but it is. People are paying for someone who has put the thought into designing a coloring book with themes. Ive tried it and - trust me - to actually get a coherent 50 page coloring book and design the cover and do A+ content is certainly a 'project' that will take multiple hours (yes she say in under 60 mins but she didn't even do the cover for the book or any of the other things that will require quite a bit of time- and she chose the first theme that came into her head rather than spending time researching niches and keywords. compare all that versus someone taking 30 seconds to click 'buy' on Amazon and it arriving at their door versus spending ...even 1 hour compiling all this (and as said it will be much more than this). There are a huge amount of people who will pay less than $10 rather than spend several hours. You wrote this comment 1 year ago - I just checked today and coloring books (AI and hand drawn are still selling like crazy)
In the term of use of midjourney even if you pay you can't say that you own the copyright of the images so how can you write the copyright page of the book?
Do amazon promotw these types of AI generated books or after sometime it will ban the account of the AI supported authors? I see genuine authors complaining about this .
The copyright issue is not going to be found using Tin eye because, as I understand it, users upload images as starting points for the AI software which they may or may not own the copyright for. So every time you generate an image of "dog among the flowers" the AI is presumably looking at all the source material users have uploaded in those subject areas as a starting point. If those original images were stolen off Google then that creates a copyright infringement. I'd be really careful until you understand the full copyright situation because it seems to me that copyright law has not yet caught up with the development AI generated stuff. What concerns me now is that anything you buy from Creative Fabrica and other photolibraries could be AI generated and that makes me question if I can be sure what I am buying is legit.
Always take notice that AI never gets the proportion right so you need to look at actual pictures of reference! This is why I do not support AI over traditional or digital art.
AI will make your books become ridiculously cheap!! Good luck.....AI created content is NOT copyright protected and cannot become copyright protected ever!
How about offering classes on using MJ? I would pay for it. The trial was not offered. When I tried to put descriptions in the box I received a message stating that I needed to join. Also, it stated that Trials were not offered because it was busy. Right now, I am waiting to have a few hours to get on and join.
I hate midjourney and discord. I am curious why no one really wants to use something else, like stable diffusion or an affordable software. and most of the software is no where near affordable.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, but we should keep in mind that the technology is still not perfect - look at their paws, many of these dogs have 7 fingers and it looks weird ;) And the first dog (with frisbee) had 5 legs. Many people who buy coloring books are complaining about this kind of errors.
how to make the lines of the images obtained a little thicker, because the images of midjourney they are beautiful but grayed out and blurry, thank you
I think a big issue with this is that animals seem to have too many toes. If you really inspect your coloring pages there is almost always something wrong.
You can start a private chat with MJ bot not to see all the other users' images. Also it is possible to make you images private with the top paid plan if I am not mistaken. Also I think it is necessary to upscale these images, as straight from MJ they don't have high enough resolution. I've made a couple of coloring books using Midjourney. Too early to tell if they're successful. I've also used MJ for covers of various books and for all kinds of interior graphics. Very useful.
Yes, the Pro level allows you to go into stealth mode so no one else sees what you’re working on. I still delete my finished generations from their server when I’m done, tho. I prompt MJ with my own actual artwork tho. I use an app called Hitpaw to upscale my work so I can use it in large prints.
I've been trying this with Midjourney and I just can't get the results you have. They aren't offering free trials at the moment, so I've paid for a subscription and I've tried all sorts of different prompts, but it still keeps coming up with colour and large blocks of black or grey, even when I specifically say black and white, no colour etc. I've tried cartoon style, manga style, kawaii style, line art only in my prompts. Getting very frustrated, because I can see the potential, but I can't get the results I want without doing quite a bit of editing of the images. Any advice?
You can upload a pic that would work for what you want and instead of /imagine, use /describe --it'll ask you to upload an image and give you descriptive words for it. Then hit the imagine all option to see what you can get
The frustrating problem I have, and I noticed you didn't mention it, is the grey shading that appears in these images. When a good portion of your picture already is colored in with grey shading, I can't imagine the person trying to color it is very happy. The AI is just not smart enough not to do some shading when generating the images.
Hi Rachel, what about using quotes in coloring books? Do we have to cite them at the back page? Is there a required format or it's fine just citing them? And what if I paraphrase every quote, still need to cite the person? Thanks in advance
@@DaniiMarie333 check wiki quote then check the time of death of the person (author, poet, etc.). Before 1930 quotes are in the public domain area, so it's safe to use, and if the person died after 1930 you should be careful as their descendants could sue you. Public domain is 70 years after the person's death in most cases
how do you prevent other users to use the images that are created for you? this could lead to problems with kdp if many use the same images. also, is ai art copyright free? dou you get a license when signing up? I've had so much trouble with graphics on kdp that I indeed paid for or that where free to use commercially.
You can’t. People will steal your prompts and even your renders if they want. The very first prompt I put into Midjourney got rerolled by someone else… Even with the bot in your discord your renders still show up elsewhere unless you have stealth mode which you have to pay extra for. Without stealth mode it’s open season on everything you create in MJ.
*Can you please tell - as you showed in midjourney in the newbie group - as you give the prompts what if somebody else copies your image when its visible (as all other users images are also visible) and uses it in their coloring book? Or, what if you use other users images in your book? How does that not concerning? Or, is there anything I missed? Thanks a lot.*
HEY to the guy asking about lining up a shallow die on the second pass - mark it with a sharpie right across the die and metal, you'll be able to align perfectly! (sorry for the delay in answering, I had to go create an acct to comment.
cool contend! But you can go private with the midjourney top plan. Nobody then sees your images. About coloring books, are these made hardcover only or also paperback? Does paperback work for kids?
Everyone can view your creations, even if you create your images using the chatbot on a private server. However, no one can repost your images without your permission, nor can they use them for commercial purposes.
Yes, everyone can use whatever image you create in MJ, unless you are on a private plan, even with a paid plan MJ itself can use your images if it wants to. You are creating these images in a public space, so why would they be just yours. It happened to me in real time while i was creating something. That is why i stopped using MJ.
Why do I not get the options displayed regarding beta upscale redo? Is the version 5,1 better than the one you used on this vid? Thanks for the super video!
Are they going to get past the AI created new rules they are coming out with? I know text is easy to tell but what about art. I'd hate to have my book de-ranked or loose an account over using this. Halppp
be very careful before you do her steps. Amazon has been banning alot of people. Due to them implementing a AI detection system into their reviewing process
Yes. Literally thousands of people are making and publishing hundreds of thousands of coloring books now on KDP using this method. Nobody is making any money anymore because the market is over saturated
However, when Amazon requests a document of right to include all images in the book(s) listed above. An example of this is a signed contract or written statement signed by the photographer or other copyright holder that gives you the right to use the images How do we get it
This was great - however, I am trying to understand how the images went from Discord to Mindjourney. Is it connected or were they downloaded from Discord then uploaded to Mindjourney??
It's connected and sends them to your Midjourney account automatically. When you sign up for an account on their website, it asks you to sign in with your Discord. You don't need to manually do anything.
Have you published any of these colouring books using your KDP account? The reason I ask is because from watching your videos you seem very careful on what you publish through your KDP account.
"Hi, nice video! if I publish my book (mandala book) on amazon kdp, does it have to be stated in the book what I used to make the drawings? Midjourney, Canva etc. Thanks!" I asked him this question twice, but he immediately deleted my comment xD so it shows a bit dubious things in my opinion...
No, I haven't published any colouring books on my account. This is the first colouring book interior I've ever created, as the process seemed too labour-intensive before this AI came along. We'll all need to be mindful when using AI and keep up to date with both Midjourney's and KDP's Terms as this is a rapidly evolving space.
No, you don't need to state what you used to create the drawings. If you're using free artwork that requires attribution, however, you will need to attribute the work to its author.
Holy moly! I haven't seen a ton of AI demos, but of the ones I've seen, this is by far the best. Thank you for the demonstration, @Rachel Harrison-Sund.
@@RachelHarrisonSund Yes. I was going to right after I commented, but something came up. I'm going to look into it before I go to bed tonight. I'm in your Low-Content Profits Academy, so I'll probably have questions for you. :)
I noticed you had advised your viewers of adding in a copyright page when preparing these AI-generated images for a KDP book... I think you might be wrong in providing that advice, as from what I understand AI art has been determined, by law, as not being copyrightable. I also think it is only right to let your customers know, in the book's description and title, that what they will be getting is AI-generated work so that they can make an informed decision before purchasing the item.
Actually there is a case in New York that a completely generated book with pictures from MJ was able to be copy written. he presents a RUclips video with certification and all
You select upscale which is the U1 to U4 that you will see. Pick the one that corresponds wit the image you want to single or select all 4 to upscale if you want all 4.
It's against Midjourney's Terms to use other people's images without their permission. If you see someone has used your image on KDP you can file a copyright infringement claim.
Great images Rachel, thanks for sharing! Hey I'm new to kdp and I have one small question. Do I need to place a blank page between coloring pages when making a coloring book? Thank you.
The jury is out as far as I know from a copyright point of view. Do Midjourney own the copyright or you as the creator or the person that made the images Midjourney started with? Personally, I'm not risking it
Have you taken Midjourney for a spin yet? Let me know in the comments!
I'm just looking at it today, thanks!
yes. I started about two months ago and I am addicted. and now version 5.....oh my. the possibilities are endless....

Thank you, I'm a new kdp color book maker. This was very informative 😊 i subscribe
HEY to the guy asking about lining up a shallow die on the second pass - mark it with a sharpie right across the die and metal, you'll be able to align perfectly! (sorry for the delay in answering, I had to go create an acct to comment.
@RachelHarrisonSund do you need to add a disclaimer that your images are AI-generated to your book?
This is soooo powerful! Thank you for sharing!
And Amazon is okay with using this AI for colouring books? Do you check for plagarism?
I want to remove greyscale in coloring page . So I want to write primpt for this ? But how to write primpt for removing greyscale?
Have you figured out a prompt for midjourney to have it color in one of the pages to make the cover?
Amazon will ban your account if you do this so don't waste your time. Happened to me.
Curious why you don’t add midjourney to your personal server in discord? It keeps your feed separate and private
Midjourney sucks, it is impossible to get in. :( I wish there were other options.
I could not see what was happening on the screeen. Words and numbers was to tiny for me.
cool contend! But you can go private with the midjourney top plan. Nobody then sees your images. About coloring books, are these made hardcover only or also paperback? Does paperback work for kids?
So does everyone in that chatroom, can they all publicy view and access the coloring pages that you create?
Everyone can view your creations, even if you create your images using the chatbot on a private server. However, no one can repost your images without your permission, nor can they use them for commercial purposes.
Yes, everyone can use whatever image you create in MJ, unless you are on a private plan, even with a paid plan MJ itself can use your images if it wants to. You are creating these images in a public space, so why would they be just yours. It happened to me in real time while i was creating something. That is why i stopped using MJ.
Why do I not get the options displayed regarding beta upscale redo? Is the version 5,1 better than the one you used on this vid? Thanks for the super video!
Nice video ! Where do I check that I don't have a copyright violation?
Are they going to get past the AI created new rules they are coming out with? I know text is easy to tell but what about art. I'd hate to have my book de-ranked or loose an account over using this. Halppp
Rachel, is the discord only available in the basic paid version?
My mind is spinning!! Thank you for the detailed instructions!
Have fun with it! Just be sure to stay on top of KDP's and Midjourney's terms, as this is a swiftly evolving space.
be very careful before you do her steps. Amazon has been banning alot of people. Due to them implementing a AI detection system into their reviewing process
Does amazon kdp actually accept coloring books with interior pages and cover created by midjourney AI? Thank you to who will answer.
Yes. Literally thousands of people are making and publishing hundreds of thousands of coloring books now on KDP using this method.
Nobody is making any money anymore because the market is over saturated
What about when the images have extra limbs/paws/fingers/etc?
I have created a coloring book, but I am struggling with the cover and how to get one of the pages colored for the cover. Any ideas?
Hi Can i use some midjourny image existing create form other personne
yes its possible but style and stroke size are NOT consistent
You're using v5, aren't you?
However, when Amazon requests a document of right to include all images in the book(s) listed above. An example of this is a signed contract or written statement signed by the photographer or other copyright holder that gives you the right to use the images How do we get it
You can make your own server and add the bot to it! Then you can have a private feed
so can anyone see and steal your prompts/images?
i have just come on to this and there are no "newbies" bots?
Could you provide some example of promth you gave to obtain at least one of your image ?
This was great - however, I am trying to understand how the images went from Discord to Mindjourney. Is it connected or were they downloaded from Discord then uploaded to Mindjourney??
It's connected and sends them to your Midjourney account automatically. When you sign up for an account on their website, it asks you to sign in with your Discord. You don't need to manually do anything.
Can other people take your images in discord?
Have you published any of these colouring books using your KDP account? The reason I ask is because from watching your videos you seem very careful on what you publish through your KDP account.
"Hi, nice video!
if I publish my book (mandala book) on amazon kdp, does it have to be stated in the book what I used to make the drawings? Midjourney, Canva etc. Thanks!"
I asked him this question twice, but he immediately deleted my comment xD
so it shows a bit dubious things in my opinion...
No, I haven't published any colouring books on my account. This is the first colouring book interior I've ever created, as the process seemed too labour-intensive before this AI came along. We'll all need to be mindful when using AI and keep up to date with both Midjourney's and KDP's Terms as this is a rapidly evolving space.
No, you don't need to state what you used to create the drawings. If you're using free artwork that requires attribution, however, you will need to attribute the work to its author.
@@RachelHarrisonSund yes absolutely agree about being mindful. Thank you for replying.
Do you mention in a book that images were AI generated or do you use some penname of an "artist"?
Make a server so you don't have to search.
Thank you for the tutorial! How do I then color in one of these Midjourney generated images to use as a cover image?
Puppy has so many legs 😂
how did you view your gallery?
How do we use mudjourney on a tab?
Copyright issue or not after using that site
Can you remind me. Can the coloring books use a Amazon ISBN? It’s been awhile since I have published and everything used to have an ISBN.
Yes, you can get a free ISBN for coloring books, but not for "low-content" books, like journals, planners, etc.
Do you not have your own server with the MJ bot?
Have you had any issues with resolution?
Holy moly! I haven't seen a ton of AI demos, but of the ones I've seen, this is by far the best. Thank you for the demonstration, @Rachel Harrison-Sund.
Thanks for watching, Suzy! Do you think you'll give it a spin?
@@RachelHarrisonSund Yes. I was going to right after I commented, but something came up. I'm going to look into it before I go to bed tonight. I'm in your Low-Content Profits Academy, so I'll probably have questions for you. :)
no free trials at this time...
I noticed you had advised your viewers of adding in a copyright page when preparing these AI-generated images for a KDP book... I think you might be wrong in providing that advice, as from what I understand AI art has been determined, by law, as not being copyrightable. I also think it is only right to let your customers know, in the book's description and title, that what they will be getting is AI-generated work so that they can make an informed decision before purchasing the item.
You’re so right
Actually there is a case in New York that a completely generated book with pictures from MJ was able to be copy written. he presents a RUclips video with certification and all
You can convert to vector graphics too.
how do you separate the pictures to singles from the group of four in Midjourney? thanks
You select upscale which is the U1 to U4 that you will see. Pick the one that corresponds wit the image you want to single or select all 4 to upscale if you want all 4.
I created my own thread so I didn't have to try to find my stuff in the middle of everyone else’s. Big time helps!
Oh, and /remix is great, as well. Basically it gives you the option to add or change the prompt when using any V button.
How do you keep from others taking your pictures because then it'll be a duplicate of your book.
It's against Midjourney's Terms to use other people's images without their permission. If you see someone has used your image on KDP you can file a copyright infringement claim.
@@RachelHarrisonSund Thank you so much for the reply.
Thanks😊
Great images Rachel, thanks for sharing! Hey I'm new to kdp and I have one small question. Do I need to place a blank page between coloring pages when making a coloring book? Thank you.
Yes you do
Is this legal ؟ please
Yes, this is legal. You can read Midjourney's Terms for full information on usage.
The jury is out as far as I know from a copyright point of view. Do Midjourney own the copyright or you as the creator or the person that made the images Midjourney started with? Personally, I'm not risking it
Very good, thank you!
Great easy to follow video!
