Prompt - 1

A monumental Ottoman–İznik inspired ornamental composition centered on a fictional tech visionary named Sam Altman, depicted as a symbolic human figure whose form transitions seamlessly from hyper-detailed realism on one side into unfinished sketch-like abstraction on the other, with the transition perfectly mirrored across both axes so that the duality becomes a symmetrical philosophical motif rather than asymmetry; the figure is embedded within an 8-fold radial medallion system, surrounded by quadrant-based mirrored saz leaves, tulips, carnations, and rumi scrollwork, all precisely reflected to enforce perfect bilateral symmetry (vertical and horizontal); the “unfinished” regions are rendered as controlled ink outlines and geometric construction lines, while the “finished” regions display ultra-refined textures, both states blending seamlessly at the centerline intersections; golden hour lighting atmosphere interpreted in a flat ornamental way using warm amber, coral red, and soft gold tones evenly distributed without directional shadows; background in deep imperial lapis blue ceramic glaze; intricate rosette medallions and çintamani motifs interwoven into the structure; crisp cobalt, turquoise, emerald, and ivory palette accents with disciplined contrast; seamless edge-matched tiling with infinite repeat compatibility, no borders, no framing, no edge artifacts; flat orthographic front view; soft even lighting, no vignette; ultra-detailed ink-brush texture; composition must feel like a timeless philosophical artifact exploring completion vs incompletion through symmetry, with no perspective, no depth, no randomness.

Prompt - 2

A landscape where parts are hyper-detailed, others unfinished like memory gaps. Seamless transitions. Golden hour lighting.

[windysoliloquy]

It wasn’t all that long ago that images like those were too much to ask of the models.

It’s just absolutely amazing the rate at which this technology is evolving.

[windysoliloquy]

I took your spiral one that the model failed at across, 3 entirely different domains…

And it just bleeds without finding a domain…

Interesting concept, still too much for the model to handle and have power left to handle the rest of the prompt.

too repetitive for the eyes

[Bleatlock]

I know…. I know… too cheesy…

Prompt

A photorealistic candid photograph of an early spring morning in a quiet urban street.

The moment should feel unposed, like the city slowly waking into a new season.

Prompt - 1

Scene / Environment:
A vast enchanted forest with a colossal ancient sentient tree at the center, forming the living heart of a magical city. The tree has a massive gnarled trunk, sprawling branches, and deeply textured bark, radiating age and quiet intelligence.

Subject / Worldbuilding:
Multi-tiered steampunk-fantasy architecture is seamlessly integrated into the tree:

• Domed towers with aged copper roofs (subtle patina)
• Stained-glass windows glowing softly
• Ornate wooden balconies and vine-covered facades
• Treehouses embedded into thick boughs
• Suspended walkways and rope bridges with visible pulleys and mechanical details
• Aerial platforms populated with small figures in colorful medieval-fantasy attire

Below Ground:
The roots extend into illuminated caverns filled with giant bioluminescent mushrooms casting soft blue light.
Underground pathways and market stalls are visible, glowing gently with حياة and activity.

Sky / Atmosphere:
Above the canopy, warm sunlight pierces through leaves in volumetric rays.
Floating sky traffic includes:

• Brass-and-wood airships
• Insect-like dirigibles
• Dragonfly-winged gliders

Small Details / Life:
Tiny flying creatures move through the air:
mechanical beetles, winged lizards, hummingbird-like sprites.
Lush vegetation—moss, ferns, flowering vines—cascades over structures.
Spiral staircases wrap around the trunk.
Hidden grottos emit warm amber light.

Background:
An endless misty forest stretches into the distance with faint treetop spires fading into atmospheric haze.

Style:
Digital painting in the spirit of Studio Ghibli × Brian Froud × James Gurney.
Magical realism, intricate worldbuilding, rich textures, painterly detail.

Color Palette:
Emerald green, terracotta, gold, cerulean blue, soft violet accents.
Balanced, harmonious, slightly warm tone.

Lighting:
Cinematic natural lighting with soft volumetric sunbeams.
Bioluminescent blue glow below, warm amber highlights in grottos.

Composition:
Wide panoramic view, slightly elevated perspective.
Tree centered as focal point, branches leading the eye outward.
Foreground highly detailed, midground active, background softly hazy.

Depth of Field:
Sharp foreground detail, gradual atmospheric blur in distance.

Mood:
Wondrous, serene, alive with quiet activity. No chaos, no darkness.

Constraints:

• No modern objects
• No text or watermark
• No overly futuristic elements
• Maintain coherent architecture and believable scale

Prompt - 2 - Edit

High-key lighting, bright daylight, exposure raised (+0.7 EV feel), lifted shadows, soft global illumination, daylight white balance (6500K), clear air, no haze or fog, no vignette, vibrant saturated colors, glowing highlights, crisp edges, tack-sharp detail.

Prompt - 3 - Edit

Wide panoramic composition, slightly elevated perspective, tree centered as dominant focal point, branches guiding the eye outward into darkness. Strong light falloff and atmospheric depth create a contemplative, magical, and immersive mood—serene yet dramatically lit.

No flat lighting, even illumination, overexposed highlights, low contrast, modern objects, text, watermark, overly futuristic elements.

It gets really locked in there… I suspect you had hoped for a different outcome when invoking ‘panoramic’?

i like to test very simple prompts sometimes to see the best i can get with minimal input. i should start doing more with “serious” prompts!

[windysoliloquy]

^.^

I’m trying to make it so you can do that easily…

I intend to wrap up a release today so everyone can test the new templates…

I wanted your attention briefly for what sort of fantasy style would work best for your flavor of RPG stuff too…

If you could provide some sample images that are in line with what you use, prefer, that would be ideal…

I gotta wrap up a tattoo style because we have an artist in-house first, but that should be done within an hour or so.

If someone doesn’t stop me, I won’t even know how to pronounce the number of meaningful variations in prompt states available in my dev version of the forge….

Making my next pass to better address @vb ‘s request now that I have much more experience in dealing with specific styles…

After removing non-meaningful linguistic states, I still have:

ChatGPT math spam

Yes. Under those rules, each lane has a finite number of states.

The clean formula is:

\\text{lane states}=(5^{23})\\times(\\text{dropdown state product})\\times(2^{\\text{checkbox count}})

Why that works:

• the 23 sliders are all independent, each with 5 states

• each lane’s dropdowns multiply together

• the checkboxes allow any subset, including none and all, so n checkboxes = (2^n) combinations

• if a lane has no dropdowns, that part contributes 1

• if a lane has 0 checkboxes, that part also contributes 1. The common slider multiplier is (5^{23}=11{,}920{,}928{,}955{,}078{,}125). Useful checkbox factors here are (2^7=128), (2^6=64), (2^{10}=1024), (2^8=256), and (2^5=32).

Here’s the result two ways:

Lane	Lane-specific states only	Full states including 23 sliders
3D Render	896	10,681,152,343,750,000,000
Anime	5,376	64,086,914,062,500,000,000

Vintage Bend	32	381,469,726,562,500,000
Watercolor	320	3,814,697,265,625,000,000

So the smallest lane is Tattoo Art with 1 lane-specific state and 11,920,928,955,078,125 full states, while the largest is Fantasy Illustration with 5,120 lane-specific states and 61,035,156,250,000,000,000 full states.

The next useful step is either:

1. total states across the whole app, or

2. a cleaner “complexity ranking” by lane.
