    Ready to experiment?

    Pick one of these prompts and see where it takes you. The interesting bit is not just getting results - it is discovering what happens when you tweak the parameters or combine different approaches. If you end up with something unexpected (whether that is brilliantly unexpected or amusingly terrible), we would genuinely love to see it.

    Share your results, your variations, or the weird tangents you went down trying to get things just right. That is often where the best insights come from: the collective trial and error of people actually using these tools in practice.

    And if you found this useful, we have got plenty more practical how-to guides covering everything from creating images for your blog to helping you automate boring work tasks. Each one is built the same way: real techniques, actual examples, no fluff.
