Picture it. Watch it appear.
Text in, image out. Fourteen apps that conjure and transform visuals — comics, plushies, vintage ads, dungeon scenes, and more.
Text in.
Image out.

two modes — generate from nothing, or transform what you already have
You used to need Photoshop. Or a commission. Or a budget.

— J. Chris Anderson, Vibes DIYThese are the apps that close the gap between what you imagine and what you can show someone. A dungeon scene for tonight's session, a vintage ad for a product that doesn't exist, a plushie rendered before you pick up a needle. The image was always in your head. Now it's on your screen.
