This isn’t a perfect prompt. It’s simply the prompt I’ve settled on after creating a lot of images. Some parts reflect my own preferences. As I explain each section, you’ll see where you may want to make different choices.
Here’s the prompt I use every day. Let me explain why every word is there.
( I need a unique 16:9 aspect ratio photorealistic image with lots of white and colors on it that best represents this {platform} post to add to the post on {platform} )
Let me explain this prompt from start to finish.
I include ‘unique’ because I want the model to avoid giving me something that feels repetitive or too similar to images I’ve already generated.
16:9 Aspect ratio is wider than it is tall. It makes it easier to make smaller to fit the platform you are putting it on. Each platform has its own internal image size preferences. You can always resize it down or up in your image editing software.
I personally like photorealistic images because in my business they look better, in my opinion. It is a personal preference only.
The lots of white space is so I can manually add both my signature and web site address. Again it is a personal preference.
Colors because black and white are boring to me. Lol
Best represent platform is because the AI models generally know what looks better on the platform you are creating the image for.
Post to add to the post on platform. That is to tell the AI model again where the image is intended to go.
Now here is the key. Below the prompt you paste in what you plan to post, the content/text of it. This matters because the AI model now has what the image is meant to represent.
That’s all of it, nothing magical about it, it is just, this is what I want and this is what it is for. No need for a paragraph long prompt. Just let the AI image generation model do what it can do best.
