The eight works above comprise four 16:9 landscape left–right samples and four 3:4 portrait top–bottom samples. Every work was generated independently by Panel 098 from its own original brief; no artwork from another numbered Panel is reused. The samples use intelligent English copy.

What it solves
Panel 098 keeps identity and key gestures recognisable, then turns the photograph into a small narrative world of loose ink, flat watercolor or gouache washes, visible brush marks, symbolic scale, naïve perspective, and playful hand lettering. Its apparent innocence is held together by mature negative space and graphic rhythm.
Best for
- simplifying a photograph without losing its emotional and narrative core;
- loose ink, flat watercolour or gouache, naïve perspective, and visible handmade marks;
- everyday memories, cultural stories, whimsical scenes, and gentle visual humour;
- top-bottom, left-right, design-only, multi-ratio, wallpaper, and directory-batch delivery;
Quick start
Use XXD Panel 098 on this image and recommend the most suitable composition and size first.

Quick fit check
| What you need to know | What this style gives you | |---|---| | What you get | A bright, tender, witty narrative poster with the tactility of an independently painted picture book | | Recognisable signature | loose ink, flat watercolor, visible brush marks, symbolic scale, naïve perspective, and irregular hand lettering | | How it respects the source | Identity, pose, and narrative remain recognisable while unnecessary elements are actively omitted without tracing filters | | Where it works | Art posters, covers, social content, design-only art, multiple ratios, and four-device wallpaper sets | <!-- xxd-panel-benefit:end -->
Usage tips
- Start with one clear photo: choose a source whose subject, action, and relationships are easy to recognize before choosing the delivery format.
- Join the parameters in one sentence: say “top-bottom / left-right / design-only + 16:9 / 3:4 / phone wallpaper”; you can also name desktop, tablet, or smartwatch sizes.
- State what must stay: identify the people, objects, actions, relationships, and copy to preserve, while leaving room for the style to design the layout.
- Choose a text mode: let the model write from the image, lock exact wording with
--text exact --copy, or remove text completely with--text none. - Clarify reality and design regions: for top-bottom or left-right, say which region keeps the photograph and which region is redesigned; for design-only and wallpapers, say that the whole canvas is redesigned.
- Test one image before batching: confirm mode, ratio, text, and language on one source, then reuse the settings for a folder; change one variable per iteration.
Get started
git clone https://github.com/nevertoday/xxd-panel-098.git
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills
ln -s "$(pwd)/xxd-panel-098" ~/.codex/skills/xxd-panel-098You can also install it directly with npx skills:
npx skills add https://github.com/nevertoday/xxd-panel-098 --skill xxd-panel-098The command fetches the repository from GitHub and installs the same-named Skill for the current agent. To install it in the user-level Codex Skills directory, append --global --agent codex --yes.
Claude Code users may link the same folder under ~/.claude/skills/xxd-panel-098. Restart the agent session after installation.
