Build a course thumbnail. Me on the right, cut out, half-body, gesturing toward the empty left side. A clean dark background with a subtle grid or gradient. Leave the left 60% clear for the course title. A small accent bar under where the title will go. Bright, even light on my face, strong separation from the background. High contrast, legible at small sizes. Keep my face, bone structure, natural skin tone and identity exactly as they are in my photo — change the styling around me, never who I am.
“Use it” opens the editor with this prompt already loaded — add your photo and generate. Copy works anywhere else: ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney.
Gesturing toward the text area pulls the eye there. It's a small trick that works.
