<markdown>
**Personalization** (or `--p`) is a feature that uses your ranking data (from v6 pair rankings) and likes (of other users jobs from the explore page) in order to tune the model to a style that you are more likely to enjoy. It can be enabled by adding `--p` to your prompt.

# Using Other People's Styles
`--p` generates a unique code (called a **shortcode**) for each user when they use the feature. This code can be used to uniquely identify a user, just like a User ID. You can share this code with others to enable them to use your personal style in their prompts! If you don't know someone else's shortcode, you can still use their style by using their Discord User ID.

The personalization of multiple users can be blended together by including multiple shortcodes after `--p`. These codes can also be weighted by using the typical weighting syntax 

1. Enable "Developer Mode" in Discord - under `User Settings` -> `Advanced`
2. Right click on the user who's code you want to use and select "Copy ID". Make sure you click on their name or avatar, and not the message they've sent
3. In a prompt with the Midjourney Bot, add `--p <@User ID>` - replace "User ID" with the ID you've copied (for example, `--p <@287696585142304769>`)

# Usage

Personalization can make a large difference in generated images, similar to a style reference.

However, more specific prompts can make the effect much less exaggerated, especially if you provide a different style direction in your prompts. Unlike a style reference, personalization is much less opinionated in a single direction, which can make prompts more impactful.

Setting a higher stylize value, using style raw, or both in combination, can help bring back the effect of personalization on the image, though this may sacrifice adherence to your prompt. Note how as <code>--style raw</code> and <code>--s 1000</code> are used together, the image becomes colored as the style makes a larger impact.
