Create a prompt for a social media graphic that actually looks good
Need an eye-catching image for a post, event, or announcement? Describe what you want and get an AI image prompt written in the right format.
Copy this prompt
I need an image for a social media post. Platform: [Instagram / Facebook / LinkedIn / etc.]. What it's for: [event announcement, quote, promotion, etc.]. The vibe: [e.g. warm and inviting, bold and eye-catching, minimalist and clean]. Colors I like: [optional]. Please write an AI image prompt that will generate this graphic. Include details about composition, style, and any text placement suggestions.
When to use this
You need a post graphic for your small business, a community event, or a personal announcement. You're not a designer and you don't know how to write the kind of detailed description AI image tools need.
Why this works
AI image tools need specific, structured descriptions to produce good results. This prompt helps the AI write that description for you — thinking through composition, colors, style, and what the image should communicate. You get a ready-to-use prompt in the right format.

Before & after
| What you might type | What the AI writes for the image tool |
|---|---|
| "Make a graphic for my bakery's weekend sale." | "A warm, inviting flat-lay photo of fresh croissants and a latte on a rustic wooden table, morning sunlight streaming from the left, soft cream and warm brown tones, negative space at the top for text overlay, shallow depth of field, cozy bakery vibes, shot from above at a slight angle." |
