How to write a strong GPT Image 2 prompt

Use structured prompts with scene, subject, exact text, visual details, use case, and constraints.

Tip: put exact words in quotation marks and describe where each text block should appear.

How GPT Image 2 uses sources and masks

Text-to-image

Specify subject, exact text, layout, lighting, lens and output size.

Image edit

Upload the source image and describe what should change and what must stay locked.

Reference edit

Upload the source image and describe what should change and what must stay locked.

Resolution choice

Use 2K for faster review, or 4K when typography and product detail need more fidelity.

Batch variants

Generate multiple images for composition exploration before selecting a final.

Global principles

State the target artifact: poster, product photo, UI screen, infographic, or concept frame.
Give exact text when typography matters.
For edits, separate preserve instructions from change instructions.

Engine quirks / what to watch for

The model is especially useful when text and layout accuracy are part of the image brief.
Resolution affects price, so draft cheaper at 2K and rerun approved frames at 4K.
Reference edits improve when each source image has a clear role.

Tips and limits

GPT Image 2 performs best when the prompt separates subject, composition, exact text, and constraints.

What works best

Use 4K when typography and product-final detail matter most.
Use 2K for cheaper review loops before final approval.
For edit prompts, write what should change and what must remain unchanged.
Reference edits improve when each source image has a clear role.

Hard limits to keep in mind

Still images only.
The SanShengAI composer currently allows up to 4 outputs per request.
Edit mode requires at least one reference image.
Public controls are currently centered on 2K/4K output and shared aspect ratios.
