Prompt template
Create a text-free 9:16 Instagram Story background for [topic and audience]. Visual direction: [palette, texture, mood]. Reserve a clear center question zone, two separate answer-button zones, upper profile zone, bottom reply zone, and top/bottom platform margins. Keep one calm visual motif in [empty side / top corner]. Ensure high contrast for [white / dark] sticker text. No words, letters, numbers, poll options, emoji, UI, arrows, faces, platform icons, claims, or watermark.
Step-by-step workflow
- Sketch the story sequence and list the actual poll question, answer options, link, disclosure, and fallback copy.
- Map UI safe zones in a 9:16 template, including profile, progress, close button, keyboard area, and swipe-up or link region.
- Generate a background family with one visual system and controlled color variations for each story day.
- Place real stickers, options, links, disclosures, captions, and alt text in the platform or design layer.
- Preview on multiple devices, in dark and light modes, with a keyboard open and with the poll state changed.
- Measure legibility and tap targets, then export or schedule without baking interactive elements into pixels.
- Track responses and prepare a correction story if options, links, or timing change.
Example prompt variants
- Soft daylight gradient with faint paper grain, center question zone and two clear lower button zones; no text or icons.
- Deep navy studio backdrop with one quiet corner light and a broad central polling area suitable for white sticker text.
- Warm terracotta clay texture with upper profile space, center question zone, and lower keyboard-safe margin; no words or UI.
Quality checklist
- Poll question and both answers remain readable and tappable on small screens.
- Sticker zones avoid profile, progress, close, reply, link, and keyboard areas.
- Background contrast supports accessibility and does not fight selected platform fonts.
- Interactive options, links, dates, and disclosures remain editable rather than baked into the image.
- The sequence feels coordinated without repeating the same visual exactly.
Mistakes to avoid
- Rendering poll text into the image and making it impossible to update or translate.
- Placing buttons where the profile row, progress bar, keyboard, or reply field covers them.
- Generating platform UI icons that look official but behave incorrectly.
- Using decorative contrast that makes white or black sticker text unreadable.
