- Define aspect ratio: "16:9," "9:16," "1:1," "21:9."
- Name your colors: Specific colors produce more predictable results.
- Dark mode: Generate versions for both light and dark contexts.
Abstract vs. Photographic Backgrounds
Abstract backgrounds (gradients, geometry, textures) are more versatile. Photographic backgrounds (landscapes, interiors) are more immersive. Choose based on use case. For abstract styles, see abstract art guide.
