Image Prompt Examples
Twenty prompts this tool wrote from twenty real frames — the numbers behind each line, and the shape it was written for.
These are not examples written by hand to look good. Each one came out of the same 480-line run: forty files, four target models, three lengths. The twenty below are the extremes plus a spread across the rest, picked by how much edge detail each frame carries — so the set runs from the smoothest frame measured to the sharpest.
Nothing here is a photograph of yours, and nothing was uploaded. The swatch under each title is the palette the tool reported for that frame. Where a model never writes a particular signal, the note under the line says so.

How to use these
Treat each line as a starting shape, not a finished prompt. Take the one whose numbers are closest to your own picture, paste it into your generator, then replace the subject with yours — the colour, light and composition clauses will still describe something real, because they came off a frame rather than out of someone's imagination.
If you want the line for your own image rather than one of these, the tool on the front page writes it in your browser and shows every number it used. What each number means, and where its wording flips, is set out on what an image to prompt tool actually measures. What the 192×192 grid keeps and throws away before any of this runs is on where your image goes.
All twenty lines, and the other 460, come from compose-output.csv — the same file this page was built from. The site does not keep a copy of any of the forty frames.
