Photo Gold Imprint Poster

Photo Gold Imprint Poster

Use the system imagegen skill and image-generation tool. Treat every uploaded photograph as an edit source and preserve direct recognition between its photographic and gold-material states.

Output contract

• Produce one independent raster poster for every uploaded photo. Never combine photos into a collage, contact sheet, diptych, or shared canvas.
• Use a 3:4 portrait canvas with one exact horizontal 50/50 division. Keep truthful photography in the upper half and a flat gold reconstruction in the lower half. Do not let either medium invade the other.
• Render the lower hero as a thin layer of real high-purity gold naturally spread, pressed, hammered, or leafed onto a flat support. It is not a freestanding object, thick metal mass, foam form, or 3D sculpture.
• Return every poster as a separate image. Keep user-facing commentary to one short status sentence only when necessary.

Preserve the photographic upper half

Keep the source recognizably photographic. Preserve subject identity and count, anatomy or construction, proportions, pose, silhouette, direction, spatial relationships, real materials, natural light, and the original color atmosphere.

Apply only restrained art-magazine, independent-publication, or exhibition-photography color correction. Do not redraw, vectorize, beautify, materially relight, or apply gold, embossing, paper grain, illustration marks, or graphic overlays to this region.

Crop deliberately for the upper half. When more area is needed, extend only plausible sky, ground, wall, water, foliage, or environmental background. Never stretch, warp, mirror, duplicate, or redesign the subject.

Distill the source into a gold imprint

For each photograph, privately identify:

1. the one hero subject or inseparable relationship carrying recognition;
2. its essential outer contour, proportion, pose, movement, structural turns, and negative spaces;
3. the visual center of gravity, dominant axis, and direction in which the form should extend;
4. the details that can disappear while the subject remains immediately identifiable;
5. the source color relationship that can best support warm gold;
6. one very short English title and a few supported state words or micro-notes.

Translate rather than trace. Keep only the decisive silhouette, proportions, gesture, openings, and structural changes. Simplify internal detail into a few pressed planes, seams, creases, or tonal breaks. Preserve the narrative relationship when two elements are inseparable.

Do not expose this analysis or repeat the user's design brief.

Keep the lower scene optically flat

Use a frontal, eye-level, distortion-free camera aimed squarely at the support plane. Keep horizontal and vertical relationships accurate. Avoid wide-angle stretch, tilted perspective, foreshortening, dramatic close/far exaggeration, edge distortion, tabletop perspective, or oblique product photography.

Arrange the imprint according to its weight, contour flow, and action. It may be centered, lightly offset, locally extended, cropped with intent, or scaled against negative space. Maintain a clear axis, stable balance, and large quiet areas. Do not mechanically center every subject or surround it with decoration.

The gold may show extremely shallow pressed depth and edge undulation, but it must remain visually bonded to the flat surface. It must not cast the heavy shadow, sidewalls, thickness, pedestal relationship, or volumetric silhouette of a sculpture.

Choose the background mode

Use the user's requested mode when stated. Otherwise select the mode that best preserves the source's mood and gives the gold clear, refined separation.

Light or tonal ground

Choose a light, soft, neutral, calm, or mid-value background derived from the upper photograph. Prefer a source hue that creates an elegant warm/cool relationship, sufficient value separation, or balanced tonal harmony with gold. Purify, lighten, or soften it as needed.

The background need not be pale, but it must remain clean, open, and restrained. Avoid default black, dirty gray, harsh pure white that swallows the gold, and highly saturated complementary clashes.

Dark ground

Extract a suitable source hue and deepen, purify, and refine it into a clean dark plane. If the photograph provides no credible dark candidate, choose a restrained dark hue that harmonizes with its temperature and atmosphere.

The ground should be deep and pure rather than muddy or crushed. Create clear gold separation while retaining an implicit color relationship to the upper photo. Avoid default featureless black unless the source genuinely supports it.

In both modes, use one uninterrupted support plane rather than gradients, scenery, fabric folds, marble, theatrical lighting, or a display environment.

Render real thin gold

Depict high-purity gold with fine warm metallic luster, soft reflection, subtle hammered marks, pressed traces, leaf wrinkles, natural edge variation, local folds, and occasional restrained leaf breaks. Allow slight changes in value and metal temperature so the material feels physically real.

Keep the finish matte to softly lustrous, handcrafted, and close to the surface. Use soft broad illumination that reveals texture without creating spectacle.

Avoid mirror finish, orange plastic yellow, brass or copper substitution, cheap gold plating, glitter, sequins, foil confetti, liquid-metal blobs, inflated foam, heavy bevels, hard chrome reflections, starburst highlights, and generic CGI-metal shading.

Integrate material-aware typography

Derive one extremely short English title from the subject's identity, action, mood, or metaphor. Add only a few supported state words or micro-notes.

Arrange text along the hero contour, main axis, gold edge, or a genuine gap in the composition. It may appear as delicate foil stamping, shallow debossing, subtle embossing, or low-contrast print so it shares the support material. Keep it precise, restrained, and subordinate.

Do not use years, issue numbers, invented coordinates or facts, long explanatory copy, logos, brands, signatures, pseudo-language, or watermarks.

Compile the image-edit prompt

Write one source-specific production prompt per input photo containing:

1. one independent 3:4 portrait output and the exact 50% photography / 50% flat-gold split;
2. the upper-half preservation invariants, restrained color correction, deliberate crop, and any safe background extension;
3. the lower hero's preserved contour, proportion, pose, action, structural turns, negative spaces, and simplified internal planes;
4. the frontal distortion-free camera, flat support, placement, scale, axis, balance, and surrounding quiet space;
5. the chosen light/tonal or dark mode, exact source relationship, background hue, value, and saturation treatment;
6. the thin high-purity gold layer, matte-to-soft luster, hammered marks, pressed traces, leaf folds, edge variation, and restrained breaks;
7. the exact English title and microtext with their contour-, axis-, or material-aware placement;
8. hard exclusions: no multi-photo layout, no altered or redrawn upper subject, no approximate split, no perspective distortion, no 3D gold sculpture, no thick ingot, no foam, no heavy cast shadow, no mirror luxury gold, no orange plastic gold, no brass, no liquid-metal blob, no generic black background, no pure-white washout, no high-saturation clash, no decorative clutter, no mockup environment, no logo, and no watermark.

Use concrete camera, surface, material, color, and spacing language rather than relying on adjectives such as “premium,” “luxurious,” or “golden.”

Inspect and correct

Review every result at full size and thumbnail size. Verify the exact split, truthful upper photography, immediate lower-subject recognition, frontal flat-plane geometry, stable balance, large quiet space, source-responsive ground, physically plausible thin gold, restrained reflections, and integrated typography.

If the gold looks sculptural, remove sidewalls, heavy shadows, bevels, and perspective depth; restate that it is a thin layer bonded to the plane. If it looks orange or plastic, shift to high-purity gold with subtle warm/cool metal variation and soft broad reflections. If the background feels generic, derive its hue and value explicitly from the upper image. If light mode loses contrast, move the ground slightly darker or cooler without defaulting to black. If dark mode looks muddy, purify the hue and open the shadow detail. If the lower half becomes decorative, remove ornaments and restore the hero contour and negative space. Regenerate with one targeted correction when needed.
