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.

Keep all five layers and swap what’s under them: your shop, your budget, your city. You get four covers and the post text.
Verbatim. Copy it, or let Queenie swap in your own details.
Generate a new WeChat public-account horizontal cover based on the reference cover's composition, visual metaphor, and thumbnail readability on WeChat public-account. Output size: 1456x582, ratio about 2.5:1; the core subject and essential title information should also work within WeChat public-account's safe square crop. WeChat public-account article title: {fill in WeChat public-account article title} Description: {fill in description} Original cover method: "Second Brain" Is the Core of the Future of Work style dual-skill Create a horizontal WeChat public-account article cover, 2.35:1 aspect ratio, for an article titled ""Second Brain" Is the Core of the Future of Work". Central concept: visualize abstract tool capabilities as interface windows, code snippets, node networks, control consoles, AI workflows, or a glowing system core. Style: preserve the reference cover's visual direction: black-and-white or low-saturation editorial illustration/photo. Use a palette inspired by #f8f7f3 (white), #cac8c4 (cream), #6c675f (gray), #e0dbd3 (cream). Keep the image editorial, conceptual, and readable as a small WeChat thumbnail. Composition: the image carries a high amount of information, suitable for a central subject plus auxiliary information 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 "Second Brain Is the Core of the Future of Work 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.
