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.

Referencing the old photo restoration approach, vintage texture, visual storytelling and posting tone of the case study "My Grandpa's 'Interesting' Life: Old Photo AI Revitalization", generate a new set of vintage old photo image-text posts. New theme: {fill in the photo theme you want to restore, rebuild or recreate} Reference platform: Xiaohongshu Content direction: vintage old photo image-text Creation method: keep the nostalgic emotion, film/photo paper texture, character relationships, era atmosphere of the scene and restoration constraints of the original case; if it is photo restoration, it must be faithful to the original image's identity, facial features, composition and historical context, avoiding excessive beautification, redrawing, false historical information and modern digital plastic feel. Please output: 1. Cover title and subtitle; 2. 6-9 pages of image-text script, each page includes scene description, main copy, era/texture keywords and save prompt; 3. Visual prompts that can be directly used for image generation or photo restoration, explaining requirements for characters, scene, lighting, film grain, damage restoration and color restoration; 4. Posting suggestions: title length, tags, image ratio and platform tone. Constraints: do not replicate the original author, original characters or brand logos; do not fabricate historical facts; when involving photos of real people, prioritize preserving identity consistency, and do not make them younger, beautify, slim the face or rewrite facial features.
