Keep all five layers and swap what’s under them: your shop, your budget, your city. You get four covers and the post text.

The prompt, as used

Verbatim. Copy it, or let Queenie swap in your own details.

Based on the reference cover's composition, visual metaphors, and WeChat public-account thumbnail readability, generate a new horizontal WeChat public-account cover. Output size: 1456x582, aspect ratio about 2.5:1; the core subject and any essential title information should also work within WeChat's safe square crop. WeChat article title: {填写公众号文章标题} Intro: {填写简介} Original cover approach: How to Become an AI Engineer in 2026 (Without a CS Degree) style dual-skill Create a horizontal WeChat public-account article cover, 2.35:1 aspect ratio, for an article titled "如何成为 2026 年的 AI 工程师(无需计算机科学学位)". Central concept: visualize abstract tool capabilities as interface windows, code snippets, node networks, control panels, AI workflows, or a glowing system core. Style: preserve the reference cover's visual direction: black-and-white or low-saturation editorial illustration/photography. Use a palette inspired by #fdf6ec (white), #f0eade (cream), #8a827b (gray), #fefbf2 (white). Keep the image editorial, conceptual, and readable as a small WeChat thumbnail. Composition: high information density, suited to a central subject with supporting info on the left and right, keeping the thumbnail readable. 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 "如何成为2026年的AI工程师无需计算机科学…风格双技能" -- 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.
