Original AI-generated fictional input created with the built-in imagegen tool. You may use this public sample to practice.

Use your attachments

Attach your files in the chosen AI platform, then paste this prompt.

Before you paste

Attach an authorized subject photo in the image platform. Optionally add a style reference and identify it as the second image. Uploads happen on the selected platform, not this directory.

Your prompt

Use my attached first photo as the subject reference. Preserve the visible facial identity or product shape as faithfully as the platform allows. If I attach a second image, use it only for visual style, lighting and composition; do not copy its person or product identity. Create one coherent concept image. Do not invent a new person from the style reference. If either reference is unclear, ask which image controls the subject before generating. After generation, I will compare subject details and disclose edits. Do not promise exact identity preservation.

Copy, paste, and create. Outputs can vary by model and settings.

The supplied input and output were created using the built-in imagegen tool. Visual review: cream body, green right-side handle and green rim remain; background and lighting change.
