3:4 Top–Bottom Samples
These four works reuse the same four independent sources as the 16:9 set above, now regenerated as complete 3:4 top–bottom canvases. The original photograph remains above; the lower design follows Panel 018's original brief. English copy is generated only from each photograph's content, mood, or implication, and every result was individually reviewed.

New sample: the four photos from the corresponding Chenxiang poster group were used in filename order and rendered with this Panel's original brief as a 16:9 left-right composition with original-brief-generated English copy.

These samples demonstrate the 018 aesthetic motive. Their subjects, composition, palette, copy, and earlier canvas ratio never become generation references or current defaults.
ONE VISUAL ANCHOR · FEW DEPTH LAYERS · WARM-IVORY SPACE · MATTE PAPER · COMPLETE MICROTYPE
XXD Panel 018 is an image-generation Skill for Codex and compatible agents. It selects one subject or inseparable relation as a visual anchor, preserves at least three source-specific cues, and translates only a few environment relations into foreground, midground, and background paper layers.
Scale, axes, positive/negative form, front/back occlusion, and generous warm-ivory space create clear hierarchy. Source colour resolves into main, dark structural, light layer, and at most one tiny accent role. Matte fibre, clear edges, thickness, and soft contact shadows make the sparse relief plausible, while one short title plus two to four microtext groups build a complete reading path.

Where this Panel fits — and what it solves
When a photograph needs to become a poster, cover, social asset, or wallpaper, the real design problem is rarely a simple change of style. The challenge is to redesign it while preserving identity, key relationships, mood, and recognisability.
Panel 018 is suited to work that must retain the source's essential content while pursuing this visual direction: Rebuild the photograph with one paper anchor, a few layers, and precise microtype. It begins with intended use and desired outcome; layout, size, text, and delivery format follow from those needs.
Use it when
- Content must remain anchored: people, objects, actions, and relationships should not be replaced by an unrelated template.
- The image needs stronger expression: you want a clearer editorial language, artistic treatment, or narrative focus.
- Delivery must stay flexible: one source needs comparison layouts, design-only artwork, multiple ratios, or a wallpaper set.
