Why Create Images with GPT Image 2 on Yovid

Text You Can Actually Read: Taglines, headlines and labels come out legible and sit where the layout needs them.
Infographics, Diagrams and Slides: Labeled diagrams, charts and deck slides that read like finished handouts.
Photorealism That Looks Unposed: Real skin, worn fabric and daylight instead of glossy studio polish.
Edit a Photo by Describing the Change: Upload an image, say what to remove, swap or restyle, and keep everything else.
Up to 16 Reference Images in One Request: Combine people, products and garments from separate photos into one shot.
From a Sketch or Style Reference to a Finished Image: Turn a rough drawing into a photo, or draw something new in a reference image’s style.
Up to 10 Options from One Prompt: Ask for several takes at once and keep the one that works.
Settings and What They Cost: Three quality levels, 1K to 4K, 15 ratio presets plus custom sizes, and transparent backgrounds.

Text You Can Actually Read

OpenAI built GPT Image 2 for production graphics, so lettering is crisp and set into the composition instead of floating on top of it. Put the exact words in quotes, say where they go and how the type should feel, and the copy arrives as part of the design.

Short headlines are the sweet spot. For small print or dense copy, choose medium or high quality and proofread before you publish: OpenAI notes that precise text placement can still take a second try.

Text You Can Actually Read – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Give me a cool in culture ad / fashion shot for a brand called Thread. It’s a hip young street brand. The ad shows a group of friends hanging out together with the tagline "Yours to Create." Render the tagline exactly once, clearly and legibly, integrated into the ad layout. No extra text, no watermarks, no unrelated logos. (GPT Image 2 · 2:3)

Infographics, Diagrams and Slides

Brief it like a designer, not a painter: who the visual is for, the title, every label and number that must appear, and what to leave out. GPT Image 2 lays out arrows, legends and labels as one structured image, from a biology handout to a fundraising slide.

Pick a landscape ratio for slides, and high quality when the image carries small text, chart axes or footnotes.

Infographics, Diagrams and Slides – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Create a simple biology diagram titled "Cellular Respiration at a Glance" for high school students. Show how glucose turns into energy inside a cell. Include glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. Use arrows to connect the steps, and label the main molecules: glucose, pyruvate, ATP, NADH, FADH2, CO2, O2, and H2O. (GPT Image 2 · 3:2)

Photorealism That Looks Unposed

Write the prompt as if a photographer were catching the moment: the lens, the light, the framing and the imperfections you expect to see. OpenAI’s own advice is to include the word "photorealistic", which pushes GPT Image 2 into its photographic mode, and to ask for pores, wrinkles and film grain.

Leave out words like "studio" or "glamour" unless you want them; they steer the result toward retouched advertising.

Photorealism That Looks Unposed – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Create a photorealistic candid photograph of an elderly sailor standing on a small fishing boat. He has weathered skin with visible wrinkles, pores, and sun texture, and a few faded traditional sailor tattoos on his arms. He is calmly adjusting a net while his dog sits nearby on the deck. Shot like a 35mm film photograph, medium close-up at eye level, using a 50mm lens. (GPT Image 2 · 2:3)

Edit a Photo by Describing the Change

Name the one thing that should change and list what must stay: the face, the pose, the crop, the light. GPT Image 2 reads every uploaded image at high fidelity, so a small edit stays small instead of redrawing the frame.

The same approach swaps furniture in a room, re-lights a scene for another season or clears a stray object. Repeat the keep-list in each follow-up so details do not drift.

Edit a Photo by Describing the Change – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Remove the flower from man’s hand. Do not change anything else. (GPT Image 2 · 2:3)

Prompt (abridged): Remove the flower from man’s hand. Do not change anything else. (GPT Image 2 · 2:3)

Up to 16 Reference Images in One Request

Attach up to 16 images and say what each one is for: Image 1 is the person, Image 2 the blazer, Image 3 the top, Image 4 the boots. GPT Image 2 dresses, places or composites them into one picture and matches the light, shadows and color of the scene.

Virtual try-on, products dropped into lifestyle scenes and a pet added next to its owner all work this way. Number the inputs in the prompt and say exactly what moves where.

Up to 16 Reference Images in One Request – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Edit the image to dress the woman using the provided clothing images. Do not change her face, facial features, skin tone, body shape, pose, or identity in any way. Replace only the clothing, fitting the garments naturally to her existing pose and body geometry with realistic fabric behavior. Match lighting, shadows, and color temperature to the original photo. (GPT Image 2 · 2:3)

From a Sketch or Style Reference to a Finished Image

Upload a line drawing and GPT Image 2 renders it with real materials and light, keeping what you drew and roughly where you drew it. Point it at a style reference instead, such as a piece of pixel art, and it draws a new subject in that same visual language.

When the sketch is the brief, tell it not to add new elements or text.

From a Sketch or Style Reference to a Finished Image – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Turn this drawing into a photorealistic image. Preserve the exact layout, proportions, and perspective. Choose realistic materials and lighting consistent with the sketch intent. Do not add new elements or text. (GPT Image 2)

Up to 10 Options from One Prompt

Set the image count anywhere from 1 to 10 and the whole batch comes from the same prompt, the quickest way to explore logos, ad layouts or packaging before you commit. Each image is billed at the quality and resolution you chose.

The four bakery marks below came back from a single request.

Up to 10 Options from One Prompt – GPT Image 2 — Prompt (abridged): Create an original, non-infringing logo for a company called Field & Flour, a local bakery. The logo should feel warm, simple, and timeless. Use clean, vector-like shapes, a strong silhouette, and balanced negative space. Favor simplicity over detail so it reads clearly at small and large sizes. Flat design, minimal strokes, no gradients unless essential. (GPT Image 2)

Settings and What They Cost

Stay on low quality while you are still finding the idea: it costs 1 credit an image at any resolution. Move up to medium or high once the composition is right. OpenAI treats output above 2K (2560x1440) as experimental, so look closely at 4K results.

Quality	Low, medium or highMedium by default.
Resolution	1K, 2K or 4K1K by default. Custom sizes go up to 3840 px per edge.
Credits per image	Low 1 · medium 2 to 9 · high 8 to 33At 1K, 2K and 4K: medium costs 2, 6 or 9 credits, high costs 8, 21 or 33.

Who GPT Image 2 Works Best For

Legible text, faithful edits and big reference budgets make it a working tool rather than a toy. These are the jobs it handles best:

Marketers and ad teams: Campaign concepts, billboards and social ads with the headline already set, and up to ten variations from one brief.
E-commerce and fashion teams: Virtual try-on from separate garment photos, products placed into new scenes, and backgrounds changed without a reshoot.
Teachers and explainer writers: Labeled diagrams, infographics and handouts where every term you list has to appear on the page.
Founders and product designers: Pitch-deck slides, app screen mockups and logo explorations to react to before any design time is spent.
Illustrators and storytellers: Picture-book characters that stay on model from page to page, comics planned panel by panel, and stills ready to animate with Yovid’s video models.

Strengths and Limits of GPT Image 2

Where it leads the image lineup on Yovid, and where another model or setting is the better call.

Strengths

Text in images: Headlines, labels and interface copy come out legible and stay inside the layout.
Edits that stay put: Every upload is read at high fidelity, so faces, products and backgrounds you did not mention are kept.
References and batches: 16 reference images, more than any Nano Banana or Seedream model on Yovid, and up to 10 images per request.
Cheap drafts: Low quality costs 1 credit an image at any resolution, so testing ideas is inexpensive.

Limits

4K is experimental: OpenAI rates output above 2560x1440 as experimental, so results vary more at 4K.
Complex prompts are slow: OpenAI notes that complex prompts can take up to two minutes.
Recurring details can drift: A character or brand element may shift between generations; reuse the same references and repeat what must stay.
Newer option for precision: GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst adds xhigh and max quality and is the pick when edit precision matters most.

FAQs

What is GPT Image 2?

GPT Image 2 is OpenAI’s image generation and editing model, released in April 2026 (snapshot gpt-image-2-2026-04-21). It takes text and images as input and is built for production work: legible text in images, infographics and slides, photorealism, and edits that keep what you did not ask to change. Yovid runs it in the browser next to GPT Image 2.5, Nano Banana, Seedream and its video models.

Can I use GPT Image 2 for free?

Yes. Signing up is free and includes credits, and GPT Image 2 is open on every plan, including Free. A low-quality image costs 1 credit and the default medium 1K image costs 2, so trying a few prompts costs very little.

How many credits does a GPT Image 2 image cost?

Low quality is 1 credit per image at any resolution. Medium is 2 credits at 1K, 6 at 2K and 9 at 4K; high is 8, 21 and 33. Auto size is priced like 2K, and asking for several images in one request multiplies the cost by the count.

What resolutions and aspect ratios does GPT Image 2 support?

1K, 2K or 4K on 15 aspect-ratio presets from 3:1 to 1:3, plus auto and custom sizes up to 3840 pixels per edge (multiples of 16, no wider than 3:1). OpenAI calls output above 2560x1440 experimental, so expect more variation at 4K.

Can GPT Image 2 edit my photos?

Yes. Upload the photo and describe the change, for example "Remove the flower from man’s hand. Do not change anything else." GPT Image 2 reads uploads at high fidelity, so faces, products and backgrounds you did not mention are kept. For the most precise edits, GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is also on Yovid.

How many reference images can I upload?

Up to 16 per request. Number them in the prompt (Image 1, Image 2 and so on) and say what each contributes, such as the person, the garment or the setting.

Is GPT Image 2 good at putting text in images?

It is one of its main strengths: headlines, labels, menus and interface copy usually come out legible and in place. Put the exact wording in quotes, keep critical text short, use medium or high quality for small print, and proofread before publishing, since OpenAI notes precise placement can still need a retry.

Can GPT Image 2 make images with a transparent background?

Yes. Switch the background to transparent for logos, stickers and product cutouts. OpenAI still labels transparency a preview feature, so describe an isolated subject with no backdrop, shadow or checkerboard in the prompt.

Do GPT Image 2 images have a watermark, and can I use them commercially?

Images download without a Yovid watermark. Commercial use is included on Pro, Premium, yearly plans and one-time credit packs; Lite monthly does not include it. You remain responsible for the rights to your prompts and uploads, and OpenAI’s usage policies apply.

How is GPT Image 2 different from GPT Image 2.5?

GPT Image 2.5 comes in two versions, Sunburst for the most precise edits and Flare for faster everyday batches, and adds xhigh and max quality levels. On Yovid both generations share the same sizes, 16 reference images and 10 images per request; GPT Image 2 offers low, medium and high quality.
