Put the cover under the lamp. Each of the five things that made it work is a layer you can switch on: the words, the grid it sits on, the colours it uses, the subject, the light.
HOW TO BUILD AN OBSIDIAN SYSTEM. Big English text states the tutorial topic directly; the orange-and-white contrast makes the key words get scanned first and creates the expectation of "this is practical value."

Based on the reference cover's composition, visual metaphor, and WeChat public-account thumbnail readability, generate a new horizontal WeChat public-account cover. Output size: 1456x582, ratio about 2.5:1; the core subject and necessary title information should also work within WeChat's safe square crop. WeChat article title: {fill in the WeChat article title} Summary: {fill in the summary} Original cover method: How to Build an Obsidian System That Makes Every Note You Take Actually Useful style dual-skill Create a horizontal WeChat public-account article cover, 2.35:1 aspect ratio, for an article titled "How to Build an Obsidian System That Makes Every Note You Take Actually Useful". 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: high-saturation poster/tech-advertising visual. Use a palette inspired by #080808 (black), #221335 (charcoal), #180e26 (charcoal), #8f6144 (brown). Keep the image editorial, conceptual, and readable as a small WeChat thumbnail. Composition: dark background with strong atmosphere, suitable for a single glowing focal point, a silhouette, or a central metaphorical object. 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 "How to Build an Obsidian System That Makes Every Note You Take... style dual-skill" -- 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.
