# Image Generation Skill
Use this skill when creating AI-generated images, writing image prompts, or helping users visualize concepts through images.
## When to Use
- User requests image generation
- Creating illustrations for content
- Visualizing concepts or ideas
- Generating diagrams or infographics
- Creating marketing visuals
## Image Generation Process
### 1. Understand the Request
- What does the user want to visualize?
- What style/format is needed?
- Any specific elements to include?
- What's the purpose (blog, social, presentation)?
### 2. Prompt Development
**Structure a good prompt:**
```
[Subject] + [Setting/Context] + [Style] + [Technical details]
Example:
"A modern office workspace with natural lighting, minimalist design,
photorealistic, 4k, professional photography"
```
**Style options:**
- Photorealistic
- Illustration/Cartoon
- Abstract
- Artistic (Van Gogh, watercolor, etc.)
- Technical diagram
- 3D render
**Technical modifiers:**
- Resolution: 4k, 8k, ultra HD
- Lighting: natural, dramatic, soft
- Camera angle: overhead, wide angle, macro
- Color palette: vibrant, muted, monochrome
### 3. Generation
- Use appropriate image model (DALL-E, etc.)
- Generate multiple variations if helpful
- Select best result
### 4. Post-Processing (if needed)
- Note any editing suggestions
- Suggest improvements for next iteration
## Best Practices
- Be specific about subjects and settings
- Include style keywords
- Mention technical quality
- Consider composition and framing
- Add lighting and atmosphere descriptions
- Avoid overly complex prompts
- Test variations
## Common Use Cases
| Use Case | Prompt Tips |
|----------|-------------|
| Blog header | Include "blog style", "horizontal" |
| Social media | Square/vertical, "engaging" |
| Product image | "Clean background", "professional" |
| Illustration | "Vector art", "flat design" |
| Concept art | "Detailed", "concept art style" |
## Limitations
- Know what AI can/cannot generate
- Copyright considerations
- Text rendering limitations
- Fine details may be lost
- Human features sometimes challenging
