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 publishing tone of the case study "Restoring Old Photos from Your Wild Youth with AI," generate a new set of retro old-photo image-and-text posts. New theme: {fill in the photo theme you want to restore, rebuild, or recreate} Reference platform: Xiaohongshu Content direction: retro old-photo image-and-text Creation method: keep the nostalgic emotion, film/photographic-paper texture, relationships between people, era feel of the scene, and restoration constraints of the original case; if it is photo restoration, it must stay faithful to the original subject's identity, facial features, composition, and historical context, avoiding excessive beauty filters, redrawing, false historical information, and modern digital plastic feel. Please output: 1. Cover title and subtitle; 2. A 6-9 page image-and-text script, each page including scene description, main copy, era/texture keywords, and a save prompt; 3. Visual prompts that can be used directly for image generation or photo restoration, specifying requirements for people, scene, lighting, film grain, damage repair, and color restoration; 4. Publishing suggestions: title length, tags, image ratio, and platform tone. Constraints: do not replicate the original author, original people, or brand logos; do not fabricate historical facts; when real people's photos are involved, prioritize identity consistency and do not make them younger, beautify, slim the face, or alter facial features.
