Please create a separate, independently designed premium poster from each uploaded photo. Do not combine multiple photos into one composition; output one individual poster for each photo. Use a vertical 3:4 composition, with the upper and lower sections strictly divided 1:1, each occupying exactly 50% of the total height. Upper Half: Preserve the original photograph, maintaining the subject’s identity, structure, pose, realistic texture, natural lighting, and original color atmosphere. Apply only subtle, sophisticated color grading to give it the visual quality of an art magazine, independent publication, or exhibition image. To adapt the image to the 3:4 format, the surrounding background may be naturally extended, but do not stretch, distort, or alter the subject. Lower Half: Extract the most recognizable subject, silhouette, structure, pose, and narrative relationship from the photograph and reconstruct it in the style of Mid-century vernacular graphic illustration + schematic line drawing + two-color spot printing. Do not completely trace or replicate the photograph. Instead, use diagrammatic abstraction to compress complex objects into a small number of clear geometric shapes, functional contours, and essential structural elements. The result should resemble an illustration from an old instruction manual, advertising card, technical label, or vernacular print: immediately recognizable, yet more direct, humorous, and symbolic than the realistic object itself. Emphasize economy of line: if a structure can be explained with a single line, do not use unnecessary strokes. Use direct black pen outlines, rectangles, circles, diamonds, straight lines, and simple planes to describe the objects. People, animals, and objects may have slightly exaggerated proportions, while machines, buildings, and complex structures should be simplified into clear boxes, openings, panels, and silhouette relationships. Use a flat, schematic diagrammatic perspective rather than realistic lighting or strictly accurate spatial depth. The visual language should exist somewhere between illustration and technical diagram, maintaining this distinctive character throughout the composition. Reorganize the composition according to the most important narrative relationship in the original image. Maintain one clear primary subject, while using a small number of supporting objects, guide lines, directional relationships, or structural symbols to reinforce the story. Pay close attention to visual hierarchy, geometric order, scale contrast, positive and negative space, and intentional whitespace. The image may feel slightly naïve, awkward, or handmade in a vernacular way, but it must never feel cluttered. Every visual element should appear to exist for the purpose of “explaining what is happening”, rather than simply serving as decoration.
Use the uploaded food photograph as the primary reference and transform it into a vertical 3:4 editorial art poster while preserving the main food, its appearance, composition, colors, textures, and recognizable details. Keep the upper half photorealistic, styled like a premium lifestyle/food magazine photograph: natural warm light, soft realistic shadows, elegant composition, authentic food textures, subtle film grain, vintage photography atmosphere, and a sophisticated cozy aesthetic. In the lower half, seamlessly transform the main food or a visually important element from the photograph into a whimsical hand-drawn scene or surreal miniature world related to the food. Extend, reshape, or reinterpret the food naturally as part of the illustration. Add one or two tiny human figures interacting with it in a charming, imaginative way. Use delicate imperfect ink linework, minimal vintage sketch style, subtle botanical/details, warm ivory paper texture, and plenty of negative space. Create a smooth, creative transition between the realistic photograph and the illustration so they feel like one continuous artwork rather than two separate images. The illustrated scene should tell a simple visual story based on the food and its characteristics. Add a short, witty handwritten caption that relates specifically to the food and the illustrated concept. Use small, understated handwritten typography that feels naturally drawn onto the paper. Overall style: premium editorial food photography + whimsical conceptual illustration + vintage storybook aesthetic + minimalist art direction + warm nostalgic mood. Composition: vertical 3:4, balanced negative space, realistic upper section, illustrated lower section, seamless transition, refined visual hierarchy. Avoid: changing the identity of the food, excessive decoration, clutter, large typography, borders, frames, logos, watermarks, harsh dividing lines, cartoonish 3D graphics, overly saturated colors, or an artificial AI-generated appearance.

ULTRA-REALISTIC NATURAL SMARTPHONE PHOTOGRAPH, vertical 3:4, spontaneous candid travel portrait of a young East Asian woman standing on a quiet stone walkway beside a misty mountain stream in a lush Japanese-inspired garden. She has long, softly wavy deep-black hair falling naturally over her shoulders and down her back, with a slightly off-center part and a few loose strands gently framing her face. Her facial features are delicate and youthful, with naturally textured skin, subtle realistic pores, minimal makeup, soft pink lips, and a relaxed thoughtful expression as she looks slightly past the camera. She is wearing a cream-colored lightweight knit cardigan over a simple muted sage-green camisole, paired with a flowing dark charcoal pleated midi skirt. A small vintage tan leather crossbody bag rests naturally against her hip, with a tiny red fabric keychain attached to the strap. Her body is angled slightly toward the stream while one foot is naturally positioned a little ahead of the other, as if she has just paused during a quiet morning walk. One hand gently holds the strap of her bag while the other lightly touches a strand of hair near her cheek. The pose feels spontaneous, relaxed, and completely unposed rather than like a fashion shoot. In the background, a clear shallow mountain stream flows over smooth dark stones, surrounded by moss-covered rocks, bamboo, ferns, flowering shrubs, and tall green trees. A small traditional wooden footbridge crosses the stream in the distance, partially hidden by soft vegetation. A couple of tiny distant pedestrians are naturally present on the pathway, adding subtle scale without distracting from the subject. The atmosphere is cool and slightly misty after a light morning rain. The sky is mostly covered with pale gray clouds, creating soft diffused natural daylight with gentle shadows and realistic muted green tones. Small droplets of moisture are visible on nearby leaves, while the wet stones subtly reflect the ambient light.

A premium nostalgic editorial photo-and-sketch artbook page featuring a young East Asian woman at an airport terminal, arranged in a clean vertical 3:4 composition. The upper section shows an ultra-realistic candid photograph of the woman standing beside a large airport window, wearing a fitted white sleeveless top with a black puffer jacket casually slipping off her shoulders. She has long dark-brown hair falling naturally over one shoulder and holds a dark green Korean passport gently with both hands near her waist. Her pose is relaxed and natural, with her head turned to the side as she gazes thoughtfully toward the airport runway. Behind her, realistic airport architecture, glass windows, the runway, painted ground lines, and a boarding gate create an authentic travel atmosphere. Soft natural daylight enters through the window, with subtle film grain, realistic skin texture, authentic colors, shallow depth of field, and an intimate candid photography feeling. The lower section transforms the exact same woman, clothing, pose, airport environment, and composition into a detailed loose black-and-white hand-drawn ink illustration on warm cream-colored textured paper. Use expressive imperfect lines, delicate cross-hatching, subtle sketch shading, realistic anatomy, and a handmade Japanese-inspired visual diary aesthetic. Add elegant minimalist editorial typography in the surrounding cream negative space: a small “No. 24.” title, subtle Japanese handwritten-style text, a short poetic caption reading “Sometimes, I just stand in the light and let time be quiet.”, and tiny documentary-style notes such as time, date, location, and weather.

Transform the uploaded photo into a charming hand-drawn fashion illustration while preserving the original scene and composition. Keep the same people, number of people, pose, body positioning, facial expressions, clothing, accessories, hairstyles, objects, drinks, and overall framing from the reference photo. Do not add or remove important elements. Convert the realistic photograph into a minimal Japanese/Korean-inspired lifestyle sketch illustration, using loose but confident dark green ink linework with subtle hand-drawn imperfections. Simplify facial features while keeping each person’s recognizable hairstyle, glasses, headphones, clothing silhouette, and pose. Use a soft pastel pink background with the illustration drawn primarily in deep forest-green ink. Replace realistic textures, shadows, vehicles, buildings, pavement, and surroundings with simplified expressive linework and selective cross-hatching. Keep enough environmental details to make the original location and composition recognizable. Style: cute editorial illustration, Japanese stationery aesthetic, fashion sketch, casual slice-of-life manga drawing, imperfect pen strokes, clean negative space, minimal detailing, subtle vintage feel, handmade appearance. Color treatment: predominantly pastel pink background + dark green line art, with very minimal secondary tones if needed. No photorealism, no 3D rendering, no glossy digital painting. Important: preserve the original image’s composition, perspective, camera angle, poses, proportions, clothing, accessories, and key objects. The result should look like the exact photograph was redrawn by an illustrator, rather than redesigned into a different scene. Output: clean vertical illustration, aesthetically balanced, high-resolution, polished hand-drawn finish. Short version for image models: Turn this photo into a cute hand-drawn Japanese lifestyle/fashion sketch. Preserve the exact people, poses, expressions, clothing, hairstyles, accessories, drinks, composition, camera angle and important background elements. Redraw everything with loose imperfect dark forest-green ink linework on a soft pastel pink background, using minimal cross-hatching and simplified details. Charming editorial stationery aesthetic, casual manga-inspired illustration, handmade pen texture, clean negative space, elegant and whimsical. Do not change the composition or add/remove subjects; make it look like the original photo was directly illustrated by hand.
Create one independent editorial-style poster for each uploaded photo. Do not make a collage. Process and output each photo separately. Use a strict 3:4 vertical composition, divided horizontally into two exactly equal sections, each occupying 50% of the canvas. TOP HALF — ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPH Preserve the original photo. Keep the main subject unchanged while retaining its realistic texture, natural lighting, and original color atmosphere. Apply only subtle editorial-grade color correction to create the refined feel of an art magazine, independent publication, or exhibition photography. To fit the composition, you may gently extend the sky, ground, or surrounding environmental background, but do not stretch, distort, or alter the main subject. BOTTOM HALF — LAYERED PAPER CUT / PAPER ART REINTERPRETATION Reinterpret the most recognizable subject, silhouette, pose, and spatial relationships from the photo as a minimalist layered paper-cut / paper-art composition. Use one primary subject as the visual anchor. Do not mechanically reproduce every detail. Instead, reconstruct the key silhouette, proportions, and structure through folding, cutting, layering, and overlapping. Transform only a few supporting environmental elements into foreground, midground, and background paper layers. Use scale contrast, negative space, clean alignment, and front-to-back layering to make the subject immediately recognizable while maintaining a restrained editorial composition. COLOR & MATERIAL Extract the most distinctive and recognizable colors from the original photo, then reduce them into a limited and harmonious paper-art palette. Use warm ivory or light-colored paper as the base, supported by a small amount of stronger accent colors, darker structural tones, soft transitional layer colors, and very limited highlights. The material should resemble high-quality matte cardstock, with subtle visible paper fibers, clean cut edges, and soft contact shadows under natural diffused lighting. Emphasize the tactile quality of real handcrafted paper art. Avoid glossy plastic-like 3D effects, cheap craft-paper aesthetics, neon colors, and overly saturated or complex gradients. EDITORIAL TYPOGRAPHY SYSTEM Add a refined editorial typography system. Based on the identity, location, action, material, emotion, or symbolic meaning of the subject, create one short main title. Add 2–4 groups of smaller supporting text. These may include object names, location information, numbers, sequence markers, coordinate-like numbers, direction words, status words, material descriptions, classification labels, or a very short poetic phrase. Do not use any year or date. The main title should convey emotion and identity, while the smaller text should add rhythm, structure, and refinement. TYPOGRAPHY INTEGRATION Integrate the typography naturally into the composition so that it interacts with the paper-cut forms. Arrange text along paper-layer edges, subject contours, geometric axes, or areas of negative space. Use horizontal or vertical typesetting, rotated text, generous letter spacing, edge alignment, corner placement, cross-section layouts, embedded typography, or partially overlapped text. The main title may have a subtle paper-cut or folded-paper quality, while the supporting text should remain thin, modern, restrained, and precise. The final result should feel elegant, tactile, balanced, art-directed, and distinctly editorial.
Create a hyper-realistic full-body luxury fashion editorial portrait of the same young adult female character from the reference image. Preserve her signature appearance exactly: vivid violet-purple chin-length blunt bob haircut with straight bangs, fair porcelain skin, natural freckles clearly visible across the nose and cheeks, soft delicate facial features, almond-shaped hazel/light-brown eyes, small straight nose, natural glossy lips, slim elegant physique, and youthful sophisticated appearance. Do not change her hairstyle or facial characteristics. She is standing confidently in a full-body fashion lookbook pose, facing the camera with a slight hip tilt. Her left hand rests naturally on her hip while her right arm extends downward holding a vintage worn skateboard upright by its nose. Her feet are slightly apart and her posture is relaxed but confident. She wears a bright yellow Brazil national football jersey-style T-shirt with green trim around the collar and sleeves, tucked naturally into tight black high-waisted biker shorts. She wears clean white crew socks and classic white Adidas Samba-style sneakers with black three-stripes and gum-colored soles. Add layered delicate gold neck chains with a small elegant pendant. Set the scene inside a stylish light lavender-purple studio with a nostalgic 1990s/Y2K skater and football-inspired collage aesthetic. Cover the background with carefully arranged newspaper cutouts featuring retro Nike-style graphics, a Thrasher magazine cover, skateboard imagery, comic-style flame stickers, yellow lightning bolt graphics, paper tape strips, handwritten to-do lists, small sun and smiley illustrations, retro soccer-player posters, vintage Brazil football imagery, and a classic 1990s computer window interface. Make the collage look like authentic physical paper, stickers, tape, and printed photographs attached to the wall. Use bright professional studio flash lighting with soft shadows, vibrant colors, subtle glow, realistic skin texture, detailed individual hair strands, natural fabric texture, realistic footwear and skateboard materials, and a slightly nostalgic editorial film aesthetic. Composition: vertical full-body fashion lookbook photography, subject centered, entire body visible from head to shoes, skateboard fully visible, balanced negative space, clean magazine-quality framing. Style: premium fashion editorial, 90s Y2K streetwear, skater culture, football nostalgia, retro magazine aesthetic, contemporary lookbook photography. Quality: ultra-realistic, photorealistic, highly detailed, 8K, HDR, realistic skin, realistic hair, crisp textures, cinematic depth of field, professional commercial photography, premium color grading.

About GPT Image 2

GPT Image 2 is OpenAI's image generation model, and it works differently from most: instead of diving straight into pixels, it plans the layout, reasons about your instructions, and self-checks before it draws. That deliberate pipeline is why it handles briefs that would trip up faster models.

Its standout strength is complex multi-part instructions. Ask for a labeled diagram, an infographic with several panels, or a scene where three characters each do something specific, and GPT Image 2 keeps track of every requirement. Text rendering is another reliable strength — signs, labels, and headlines come out legible instead of garbled.

A model that actually reads your whole prompt rewards prompts worth reading. Vague briefs waste its reasoning; precise ones let it shine. The gallery below collects tested GPT Image 2 prompts with their real outputs, so you can start from a structure that already works.

How to write GPT Image 2 prompts

  1. 1Write the full brief, not a keyword pile. GPT Image 2 reasons over your instructions, so numbered requirements and complete sentences outperform comma-separated tags.
  2. 2Spell out every element and its relationship: "a three-panel comic; panel one shows…, panel two shows…". The model tracks multi-part structure — give it the structure to track.
  3. 3Put exact text in quotation marks: a sign reading "OPEN 24 HOURS", a mug printed with "World's Okayest Coder". Quoted strings render far more faithfully than paraphrased ones.
  4. 4Describe layout intent explicitly — foreground vs. background, left vs. right, what overlaps what. Because the model plans composition first, spatial language directly shapes the plan.
  5. 5State constraints as rules, not hopes: "no watermark, flat vector style, white background, exactly four icons". GPT Image 2 treats explicit rules as a checklist during its self-check.
  6. 6Iterate by editing the brief, not rerolling. When one element is wrong, revise that clause and keep the rest verbatim — the model's instruction-following makes targeted fixes stick.

Frequently asked questions

What is GPT Image 2 best at?

Complex, multi-requirement images: infographics, diagrams, UI mockups, scenes with several distinct elements, and anything that needs readable text. Because it plans and self-checks before drawing, it is among the strongest models at following long, precise instructions without dropping details.

How do I write good GPT Image 2 prompts?

Treat the prompt as a design brief. List every element, its position, and any exact text in quotes, then state your style and constraints as explicit rules. The tested prompts on this page show the pattern in action — copy one and swap in your own content.

Can GPT Image 2 render text inside images?

Yes, and reliably — legible signs, labels, headlines, and packaging copy are one of its signature strengths. Put the exact wording in quotation marks and describe where it should appear; the model's self-check pass helps keep the spelling intact.

Where can I use GPT Image 2?

GPT Image 2 is available through ChatGPT and via the OpenAI API for developers. Copy any prompt from this page, paste it there, and adjust the elements or text to fit your project.
