# Generate an Image Album

> **What it does:** The AI reads your article, designs up to 9 *different* scenes from it, and draws them one by one — insert them all as a gallery, or click any one to make it the featured image.

## When to use it

- Long-form articles that need images through the body, not just on top.
- Travel/food/lifestyle content where visuals carry the piece.
- Getting several candidates and picking your favourite as featured.

## Step by step

1. Have your article in the editor (write it or generate it).
2. Open **Album Generating** in the Antradus AI panel.
3. Choose how many images (up to **9**; the default count is configurable in settings → Album Size).
4. (Optional) Type your own scene list in the description box — one scene per line — to override the AI's scene planning:
   ```
   life is short, live it up.
   a car with wings
   rice with chicken
   ```
5. Click **Generate Album**. Scenes are designed first, then drawn one by one — progress shows per image.
6. When done: **insert all as a gallery** into the post, or **click any image** to set it as featured.

## How scene design works

Instead of nine variations of one idea, the AI extracts nine *distinct* moments/aspects from your article — each image gets its own scene description, which also becomes its Media Library title and alt text.

## Tips & gotchas

- Same provider requirements as [featured images](featured-image-generation.md) — OpenAI, Gemini, or OpenRouter.
- Your selected **style preset** and color cast apply to the whole album for a consistent set.
- Nine images = nine image-generation charges at your provider — mind the meter on big batches. The [Reporting page](../bulk/reporting.md) tracks exactly what images cost you.
- If one image fails mid-album, the rest continue — you lose nothing else.
