GPT Image 2 prompt workflow

  1. Define the output goal.
  2. Break the prompt into subject, style, layout, and text.
  3. Generate a first pass.
  4. Review for composition and readability.
  5. Refine only one variable at a time.

Prompt blocks that reduce retries

  • Subject
  • Scene
  • Style
  • Text
  • Constraints

Review checklist

  • Is the layout usable?
  • Is the text readable?
  • Does the image match the brief?
  • Can the asset ship without extra work?

Best practice

If a run fails, reset the chat and keep only the approved constraints. That is usually faster than stacking many edits in one thread.

Docs-backed planning note

OpenAI's image docs separate single-image work from conversational multi-turn editing. If you later add automation, use the simpler path for one-off jobs and the conversational path for iterative work.
