GPT Image

GPT Image is an advanced multimodal model that transforms text and image inputs into high-quality, customizable visuals for creative and professional use.

Crafting Effective Prompts for GPT Image

A guide to writing prompts that yield compelling, accurate visuals.

Key prompt components

Subject & Action

Describe what you want to appear in the image and what it should be doing or how it should be composed.

Example: A sleek silver sports car parked under neon lights at dusk, side view.

Style & Mood

Define the visual aesthetic, atmosphere, colour palette, or artistic medium.

Example: In the style of 1980s synthwave poster, vivid pink and blue tones.

Background & Environment

Add context or setting to anchor the subject and enhance realism or storytelling.

Example: On a rooftop overlooking a futuristic city skyline, light rain and reflections.

Optional Details & Constraints

Provide additional instructions like aspect ratio, transparent background, specific colour hex, or "no text".

Example: 1024×1536 portrait, transparent background, no text overlay.

Pro Tips for Best Results

Use Clear, Specific Language

The more precise you are (e.g., "glass bubbles reflecting sunset" vs "nice scene"), the better the model will follow.

Iterate & Refine

Generate multiple versions, choose the best, then refine the prompt or add constraints to improve output.

Provide Reference Inputs When Editing

When editing or restyling, supplying the original image and a mask or descriptive prompt helps guide desired changes.

Basic vs Enhanced Prompting

Basic Prompt

"A dog running in a field."

Enhanced Prompt

"A golden retriever puppy happily bounding through a sun-lit meadow of wildflowers, camera angle low, shallow depth of field, warm golden hour light."

How to Use GPT Image

A step-by-step workflow to get started and integrate the model into your toolchain.

Select image size (e.g., 1024×1024, 1536×1024, 1024×1536), background setting (opaque/transparent/auto) and quality level.

3

(Optional) Upload an image for editing

If you are editing or creating variations, upload your base image and optionally supply a mask indicating the area to modify.

4

Generate and review

Submit your prompt and settings, review the output, and select variants or refine further.

5

Download and iterate

Download the final image and iterate on your prompt if needed to achieve your desired result.

When editing existing images, some constraints may remain. For best results, clearly describe the desired changes in your prompt.
