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 021'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 021 aesthetic motive. Their subjects, composition, palette, copy, and earlier canvas ratio never become generation references or current defaults.
PURE-BLACK RECTANGLE · SUBJECT MOSTLY INSIDE · ONE FEATURE BREAKS OUT · JITTERY PHOTOCOPY LINE · WHITE NEGATIVE FORM
XXD Panel 021 is an image-generation Skill for Codex and compatible agents. It locks identity, contour, pose, action, function, and relation from the photograph, then establishes one horizontal or vertical pure-black rectangle as the main field. Most of the subject remains inside it while exactly one defining structure naturally crosses the boundary.
The subject is rebuilt with black ink, technical-pen, or photocopy line that varies slightly in weight, jitters, breaks locally, and retraces only in small doses. White negative form carries recognition and tiny grey planes clarify structure. Generous paper, asymmetric placement, local cropping, and small editorial type make the breakout feel witty, restrained, and intentional.

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 021 is suited to work that must retain the source's essential content while pursuing this visual direction: Let a source-bound subject break out of one pure-black field. 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.
A simple way to begin
You do not need to review every option first. Send your Agent an image and say:
Use XXD Panel 021 on this image and recommend the best layout and size first.
The samples above can help you confirm the visual direction. When you are ready, continue to Get started. Full modes, sizes, and parameters remain available
