Design Learnings

User Preferences (Feb 2026):

Backgrounds: Use a STUNNING VIBRANT GRADIENT (e.g., Deep Midnight Blue to Electric Purple) with abstract light streaks and modern geometric glow effects. Avoid literal cricket patterns or plain gray/black.
Typography: Team names must use EXTRA BOLD 3D stylized text with thick black outline strokes (sports broadcast/impact style).
Top Banner: Red angled banner. MUST include a distinct SQUARE white box on the left for the "DESPERADOS LOGO".
Card Content: Use "MATCH 1", "MATCH 2" etc. for labels. Avoid "Card 1/Card 2".
Textures: Use subtle modern textures (tech-mesh, carbon-fiber) inside the team name background bars to add depth.
Vibe: High-energy, modern, and creative sports poster. Avoid "luxury/ornate/elegant" gold elements or cluttered patterns.
Layout: Clean angled geometric design with no straight rectangular boxes. PORTRAIT orientation for Instagram (1012x1280).

Workflow

Step 1: Count matches and parse fixture details

Step 2: Generate at 2K resolution with logo placeholders

cd /data/.openclaw/workspace/cricket-poster-generator
python3 /data/.openclaw/workspace/skills/nano-banana-pro/scripts/generate_image.py \
  --prompt "<use template below>" \
  --input-image "output/TEMPLATE-final.png" \
  --filename "output/fixture-temp.png" \
  --resolution 2K

Step 3: Resize to exact Instagram dimensions

python3 -c "
from PIL import Image
img = Image.open('output/fixture-temp.png')
img_resized = img.resize((1012, 1280), Image.Resampling.LANCZOS)
img_resized.save('output/fixture-YYYY-MM-DD-final.png')
print('Resized to 1012x1280')
"

Step 4: Overlay real logos with vision-assisted precision

Use vision model to detect placeholder coordinates
Run the post-processing script to erase text and apply high-res logos

cd /data/.openclaw/workspace/skills/ldcc-fixture-poster-maker/scripts
# 1. Get coords JSON from vision model
# 2. Run overlay
python3 overlay_logos.py \
  /data/.openclaw/workspace/cricket-poster-generator/output/fixture-temp.png \
  vision_coords.json \
  /data/.openclaw/workspace/cricket-poster-generator/output/fixture-YYYY-MM-DD-BRANDED.png

Critical: Specify exact card count ("EXACTLY TWO CARDS", etc.) to ensure all matches appear.

Common Issues

Wrong design for match count:

Single match with card layout looks empty → Use horizontal angled bars
Multi-match without specified card count → AI may skip matches

Boxy or plain look:

Specify "NO straight rectangular boxes" and "angled/diagonal edges" in prompt
Emphasize "BOLD IMPACTFUL TYPOGRAPHY" and "premium sports font"
Add "ornate gold cricket elements" for luxury aesthetic

White background sections:

Always specify "elegant DARK BLACK background" and "NO white background sections"
User prefers rich dark backgrounds with decorative elements throughout

Wrong orientation:

Always specify "PORTRAIT" explicitly

Team name:

Use "London Desperados" (never "London Desperados CC")

Dimensions:

Always resize to EXACTLY 1012x1280 after generation
