Common questions about this DALL-E prompt builder.
A DALL-E prompt generator turns a rough image idea into a structured DALL-E 3 prompt: subject, style, lighting, composition, size and quality — the details DALL-E reads best. This one also shows an example image next to each ready-made prompt, so you can see what that kind of prompt creates before you use it.

Vivid is DALL-E 3's default: hyper-real, dramatic, eye-catching images with strong colour and contrast. Natural is closer to a real photograph — softer, more realistic, less exaggerated. Pick vivid for posters, ads and fantasy; pick natural for product shots, portraits and anything that should look like a real photo.
Three sizes: 1024×1024 square, 1792×1024 widescreen and 1024×1792 tall. Square suits product shots and social posts, widescreen suits banners and landscapes, and tall suits posters, stories and phone wallpapers. The generator adds the size to your prompt automatically.
DALL-E 3 automatically expands short prompts with extra detail before generating — that is how it works inside ChatGPT. Put your most important details first, in plain words, and keep the subject to one sentence. The generator's structured format keeps the key details up front so the rewrite keeps them.
Not reliably. DALL-E 3 is better at text than older image tools, but it still misspells words, especially long ones. Keep any text to one or two short words, put them in quotes, and expect to regenerate a few times. For posters with a lot of text, a design tool is still the safer choice — or tick 'No text in the image' and add the words afterwards.
