Palette Prompting with Midjourney 6 Using --sref 

What is Palette Prompting?
Simple - using a color palette image reference to define the core color base from which Midjourney will influence the rendered results! I know, that does not SOUND simple, but it genuinely is. We can create a palette reference image (something that shows a collection of colors in a single JPG or PNG file - often in a linear sequence of side-by-side rectangles or squares). While there are many tools for creating these, I am going to walk your through creating a color palette from an image using Adobe Color.

Starting from Adobe Color - Brian Sykes (that is me) does a quick intro to the tool and shows how to extract colors to create your own palette. From there he imports the palette image as a PNG or JPG file. This can be done through Discord or the alpha.Midjourney.com platform. Referencing the link to this image file as an --sref [image_link.png], creates a colorway influence to the overall image. This can be a powerful asset to brands for creating image with a brand specific color base.
As a note, you are NOT limited to Adobe Color as the means of creating your palette. There are plenty of other tools out there for accomplishing the same thing - but as an Adobe user, this is one of the best in relation to integration across the Adobe Suite of tools. Plus, it is super easy to use.
