DALL-E3 is better. I got it on Nightcafe as a model choice as well, but I don't use it that often, because it costs a multiple more than the Lightning models I usually use.
Idk what prompt you used, I simply wrote HAPPY NEW YEAR 2025 and let 'Enhanced Prompt' flesh it out a bit:
A vibrant and cheerful scene celebrating the arrival of New Year 2025. Imagine a glowing city skyline at midnight with dazzling fireworks decorating the dark blue sky. A large, brightly lit digital clock on a skyscraper shows the time, announcing the arrival of the new year. Excited people of various genders and descents, such as White, Black, Hispanic, Middle-Eastern, and South Asian, can be seen celebrating this momentous occasion with clinking champagne glasses, while some release colorful helium balloons into the starry sky. The words 'Happy New Year 2025' engulf the sky with radiant light.
That was with DALL-E3 which costs 4 points
Vibrant fireworks illuminate the night sky, casting a kaleidoscope of colors across the bustling cityscape, as confetti and balloons fill the air, amidst a sea of smiling faces, in a joyous celebration of the start of a new year, 2025, in a style reminiscent of the dynamic, expressive brushstrokes of Ash Thorp, the whimsical, dreamlike quality of Simon Stalenhag, and the futuristic, neon-lit aesthetic of Syd Mead.
