Frequently asked questions
Which AI model is used?
All templates on this page are designed for and tested with GPT-Image-2. You can copy the prompt and run it elsewhere, but quality and text rendering may vary on other models.
How does the Remix button work?
Clicking Remix opens our generator with the prompt, aspect ratio, and resolution prefilled. You can edit any part of the prompt, swap the size, or rerun the generation as many times as you like.
Why does my generation look different from the preview?
Every run is a fresh generation — variations in composition, lighting, and detail are expected. To stay closer to the preview, keep the prompt verbatim, lock the same aspect ratio, and run a few seeds.
Can I tweak the prompt?
Absolutely — that's the point. Use the Prompt structure card below to see how the prompt is composed, then add, remove, or swap phrases to dial in your own look.
