- We used a family photo of 4 people with the default fields.

- The output used 4 colours and kept the family small at the bottom, as the prompt asks.
How to use this prompt
- Open ChatGPT and start a new image generation chat.
- Upload the family photo you want to transform.
- Copy and paste the full prompt into the chat.
- Keep the default variables for the original minimalist paper-cover style, or change the background and family placement options.
- Generate the image and check the facial identity, family interaction, proportions, colours, and composition.
- If the family is too large or the details are too realistic, regenerate and repeat the requested small composition, hand-drawn lines, and flat acrylic-style shapes.
Tip: Use a cream paper background or place the family near the bottom edge for a different editorial cover style.
Known limitations
- Exact facial identity may change slightly during the illustration transformation.
- Fine facial features may be simplified because the style intentionally removes unnecessary details.
- Extracted colours may not match the original photo perfectly.
- Hand-drawn lines and brush marks can vary between generations.
- The family may not always remain exactly within the requested lower 20% of the frame.
- Small accessories, clothing patterns, and background details may be simplified or omitted.
