LimeWire reappears as an AI image creation tool

With the prominence of modern streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, it's easy to forget about LimeWire. This P2P tool once let you download any music you wanted, and now it's back… as an AI image generator.

What does LimeWire look like today?

Today, LimeWire looks a lot like other AI imaging tools like Adobe Firefly. This tool allows you to enter text prompts to create images and sounds, with a few example prompts included on the page for inspiration.

When using LimeWire, you can also use the assistant to get information and create different types of content. Therefore, many things you can do with ChatGPT can also be done in LimeWire.

Besides being an AI generator, LimeWire has also returned as an NFT marketplace in 2022.

LimeWire Price

At a basic level, LimeWire is free to use. With the free plan, you can create up to 20 daily images and 4 audio tracks. Paid plans give you larger allowances ranging from 2,000 to 22,500 images per month and 400 to 4,500 new audio tracks per month. You also have access to all AI models.

Here's a quick summary of LimeWire's subscription pricing.

How to use LimeWire

Now that you know LimeWire is no longer a file sharing tool, let's see how to use the new and improved version.

1. Create photos in LimeWire

To use LimeWire's photo generation feature, follow these steps.

1. On the home page, select Image .
2. Type prompt in the text box and press Enter on the keyboard or send button.
3. If you want to try different creation models, select the one on the right side.
4. Customize prompt, size and image quality. If you want to make adjustments beyond the original, you must spend credits. You will receive one for free every day.

LimeWire typically takes longer than ChatGPT to produce results. So you should keep this in mind.

2. Create sounds in LimeWire

To create sounds in LimeWire, follow these steps.
