Pick the constraint style
Pick the constraint style
A tea brand needs a product photo with nothing distracting: no text on the packaging mockup, no people, no clutter — just the box on a clean surface. Two drafts of the same prompt.
Which prompt handles those constraints better?
Hint
Sort each prompt into wishes versus states: which one describes the world where the problem cannot appear?
Words like “no”, “not” and “don’t” name the thing you fear — the model can still draw what is named.
Why this is the answer
The stronger prompt converts every constraint into a renderable state: unmarked packaging instead of “no text”, empty space instead of “no clutter”, bright daylight instead of “don’t make it dark”. Conversion keeps you in the mode models handle best — rendering described things — while wishes only describe the absence of the problem until it returns under another name. Where true removal is still needed, the reliable path is an edit of that region, not a louder wish.
