Central concept: distill a single visual metaphor around "Flowers of Ooku author Bajiao Xin", avoiding cramming the whole article's information into the image. Style: preserve the reference cover's visual direction: restrained modern WeChat public-account title card. Use a palette inspired by #ffffff (white), #2b2a52 (charcoal), #695167 (brown), #bac8c9 (cream). Keep the image editorial, conceptual, and readable as a small WeChat thumbnail. Composition: medium density, suited to one main visual metaphor with a small amount of title text. Keep the main subject and any essential title text inside the safe square crop, while using the full wide frame for atmosphere, secondary symbols, or directional motion. Text strategy: use either no text or a very short headline fragment from the title. If text is used, make it large, clean, and integrated into the layout rather than pasted on top. Mood: match the article skill "Flowers of Ooku author Bajiao Xin dual-skill style" -- useful, sharp, high-signal, and slightly more memorable than a normal tutorial thumbnail. Avoid: photorealistic clutter unless the source cover is photo-led, fake logos, unreadable tiny text, generic gradient blobs, stock-office imagery, watermark-like marks, and literal screenshots unless the article is explicitly about software interfaces.
