Questions
Why does it ask me to pick a metaphor first?
Most of the quality comes from the idea, not the rendering. Three one-line options cost nothing, and choosing one before the paid run avoids paying for a picture that says the wrong thing.
How does a series stay consistent?
Every image uses the same bundled style samples and is snapped to the same three colors afterwards, so lines, shapes and background read as one hand even when the subjects change.
Can I get the same image in other sizes?
Yes, for free. The background is one flat color, so a local script extends it around the drawing to 16:9, 9:16 or 4:5 without another generation.
Does it put text in the image?
No. The look depends on having no lettering at all; put titles in your page or slide next to it.
Can I see visual metaphor examples before it draws?
Yes. Your agent first writes three to five visual metaphor examples for your idea, such as a bridge for onboarding or a funnel for focus, and you pick one before any concept illustration is generated.
