1. Use Simple, Specific Prompts

🛑Skip the vague stuff like “make something cool”

🟢Try: “A rustic bakery with pumpkins outside, cozy lights, and fall trees, ultra-realistic, golden hour lighting”

2. Add Style Keywords

Want it to look like a photo? Say “photorealistic.” Want it painted? Try “Oil painting” or “watercolor style”.

3. Think about Lighting

Use phrases like “soft lighting,” “glowing sunset,” or “dramatic shadows” to set the mood. Light makes or breaks the vibe.

4. Use Reference words

Drop in terms like “1950’s diner,” “Hallmark movie,” or “fixer upper style".” AI tools love pop culture references.

5. Describe the Setting and Vibe

Is it moody? Cozy? Industrial? Magical? Those objectives will help AI tools paint the right picture. Literally.

🖌️DALL·E 3 now lets you edit images inside ChatGPT

Paid users of ChatGPT can now generate images with DALL·E 3 and then edit specific parts of those images via natural-language-prompts. All within the same interface. For example, you can generate a dog with a bow, then tell the tool “make its ears longer” or “change the bow to red.”

🤠Outlaws POV: This is big for AI image generation. Instead of accepting an image that’s just “good enough,” you can tweak it until it’s right. Want to change the color of your coffee shop, or swap out the color of the background for fall leaves? You can. No designer. Less headache. More brand-look.

🤠Outlaws POV: What this means for you? You can finally stop messing with janky AI images that look fake. You’ll get visuals of your business. Warm, real, and stylish. Use these for social media posts, flyers, and website hero images. It’s about standing out in a small-town marketplace.

In last weeks issue, we had asked what everyone was struggling with when it comes to marketing and AI. A common issue that we have seen is that “It’s too vague” which equals crappy results, or “it doesn’t sound like me.”

One of the really cool things about AI is that you can train it. Yes, almost like a dog. A lot of folks will type things like “Make a cool flyer for…” and expect it to know what you want. AI isn’t magic. It’s more like a mirror. Garbage in = garbage out. Tell it who you are, what you sell, what tone to use, and what the goal is.

AI writes like a boring robot… or worse… corporate fluff. Lucky for you that’s easily fixable. Train it to copy your tone. Give it examples of how you talk. Include phrases you’d actually say. Make it bold, sassy, friendly. Whatever fits you and your brand. You gotta teach it to “speak outlaw."

Start creating badass images that actually match your brand. No design skills needed. Here’s my challenge for you:
