**TARGET MODEL: ChatGPT Images 2.0 (gpt-image-2, April 2026 release).** Use 2.0-specific capabilities: - Embed exact text strings — 99% accuracy English, 90%+ Hindi/Punjabi/Bengali/Arabic/CJK. Spell every word verbatim in the prompt; the model will render it as typed. - Let 2.0 plan composition first (the model uses an internal reasoning step). Specify spatial layout in plain language ("primary subject left-third, accent right-third, headline top-center"). - Request 2K (2048x2048 or 2048x1152) when the output is for web hero / OG / LinkedIn — use 1024px square only for thumbnails. - For carousel / slide-deck use cases, ask for a coherent SET of up to 8 images in one call. - If multilingual diaspora copy is needed (Punjabi for Brampton, Hindi for North-India market, Tamil for SG diaspora), specify the EXACT script + transliteration to lock the rendering. --- Generate an illustrated still-life at [ASPECT_RATIO] for "[OUTPUT_USE]". Campaign context: [CLIENT_CONTEXT]. Subject: - A wooden-framed hourglass on the left side of the frame, with draft-orange #F28C28 sand mid-flow - more sand in the lower bulb than the upper. - On the right, a clearly-stylised visa permit card resting at a slight angle on a linen surface, with placeholder labels only ("PERMIT" small caps, "EXPIRES SOON" - both literal). - A faint hairline arrow from hourglass to card, indigo #5E54FF. Style: - Editorial flat-vector still-life with soft cel-shading. - Composition: hourglass left third, card right two-thirds. Color palette: - Surface: warm off-white #F6F4EF with linen texture. - Hourglass frame: navy #1E3A5F. - Sand: draft orange #F28C28. - Card body: muted indigo #5E54FF with thin navy border. Typography hints: - Two literal labels on the card: "PERMIT" and "EXPIRES SOON" - render exactly as written in [BRAND_FONT_PRIMARY] small caps, navy at 80 percent opacity. - Keep all in-image text under 6 words. - [FIRM_LOGO_INCLUDED]: bottom-right wordmark at 50 percent opacity when yes. GPT-Image-1 directives: - Aspect ratio: [ASPECT_RATIO]. - Lighting: soft top-left window light, gentle shadows. - Mood: urgent but composed, never alarmist. Negative prompts: - No real-person likenesses. - No trademarked logos (IRCC, CBSA, real PR card layouts, real work permit layouts). - The card must NOT replicate any real visa or permit (no real chip placement, no machine-readable zone, no real seal). - No fabricated authentic documents. - No violent or discriminatory imagery. - No red/gold or blue-dominant palettes. - No AI-art tells (warped hourglass curves, melted card edges). DRAFT - for consultant/firm brand review. Verify generated image does NOT include trademarked logos, real-person likenesses, or any government-issued seal that could be mistaken for an official document. Brand colors must align with firm guidelines.
