AI Image Generation

1 min read

Create custom images without leaving Sticklight

Generate custom visuals directly in Sticklight. Describe the image you need, and the AI creates it for your project.

How to Generate Images

Simply describe what you want:

“Generate a hero image with abstract geometric shapes in blue and purple gradients”

“Create an illustration of a person working on a laptop, minimal line art style”

“Generate a background pattern with subtle waves in light gray”

Writing Effective Image Prompts

Include these elements:

  • Subject – What’s in the image
  • Style – Illustration, photo, abstract, minimal, etc.
  • Colors – Specific colors or palette direction
  • Mood – Professional, playful, dramatic, calm, etc.
  • Composition – Layout, perspective, framing

Example prompts:

“A modern office space with natural light, minimal furniture, plants, shot from a wide angle. Warm, inviting atmosphere. Photorealistic.”

“Abstract flowing shapes in coral and teal, suitable for a hero background. Soft gradients, organic forms.”

“Line art illustration of diverse team members collaborating, simple black lines on white background, friendly and professional.”

Best Use Cases

  • Hero backgrounds – Abstract, atmospheric images
  • Section accents – Patterns, shapes, decorative elements
  • Illustrations – Custom graphics for concepts
  • Placeholder replacement – When you don’t have photography

Image Generation Tips

  • Be specific about style to avoid generic results
  • Mention your brand colors for consistency
  • Request appropriate dimensions (“wide format for a hero,” “square for a grid”)
  • Iterate if the first result isn’t right – describe what to change

Limitations

  • Generated images work best for abstract, illustrative, or atmospheric content
  • For specific products or people, upload your own photos
  • Complex scenes may require multiple attempts to get right
