Questions
Can I use these prompts in other tools?
Yes, the prompts are plain text. Results differ between tools, and they work best with a model that takes a reference photo.
Why do the prompts mention keeping the face?
Image models tend to drift away from the original person. Asking for the same face, hair, skin tone and age keeps the result closer to you.
Do I need to write my own prompt?
No. Pick a scene in the studio and its prompt is filled in for you. You can still edit it before you generate.
Can I write a prompt in another language?
You can, but English prompts tend to be followed most closely. Card text in Latin letters renders most reliably.
