AI image generators can create stunning visuals in seconds from a text description. Here are the best options for UK users in 2026.
Midjourney
The gold standard for artistic image generation. Produces the most visually striking results but requires a Discord account. Pricing from £7.50/month. Best for: creative professionals, social media content.
DALL-E 3 (via ChatGPT)
Included with ChatGPT Plus (£16.60/month). More accurate to prompts than Midjourney, better at text in images. Best for: business use, product mockups, presentations.
Adobe Firefly
Commercially safe — all training data is licensed. Integrated into Photoshop and Express. Best for: professional designers who need images they can legally use in commercial work.
Free Options
Microsoft Designer (free with Microsoft account) uses DALL-E and is excellent for basic image creation without a subscription.

As a designer in Manchester, I'm loving Midjourney's artistic results. Can't wait to see what DALL-E 3 via ChatGPT brings!
I'm curious about the pricing listed for Midjourney & DALL-E 3. Are these GBP or USD?
