Where to put the codes

  • Photo: Greeting cards

    Greeting cards

    The code on the card you put in the bag or the parcel.

    ChatGPT prompt

    Photorealistic lifestyle photo, landscape 3:2 (1536 x 1024). A Christmas greeting card with a QR code, a red ribbon, pine branches and soft fairy lights on a wooden table, cosy winter mood. The QR code is a clean, generic black-and-white QR pattern, sharp and in focus, clearly the subject of the photo. Warm natural light, shallow depth of field, soft shadows, editorial magazine look. Colour palette: warm off-white (#F4F2ED), charcoal (#16181D) and muted gold accents (#C9952B). No readable text, letters, numbers, logos or brand names anywhere in the image, no watermark. If people appear, show only hands or people from behind, never a recognisable face.

    A code on every gift tag.

The QR code is a clean, generic black-and-white QR pattern, sharp and in focus, clearly the subject of the photo. Warm natural light, shallow depth of field, soft shadows, editorial magazine look. Colour palette: warm off-white (#F4F2ED), charcoal (#16181D) and muted gold accents (#C9952B). No readable text, letters, numbers, logos or brand names anywhere in the image, no watermark.

    Shop window

    A “scan and win” poster with holiday decoration. Here you want a unique code per customer, so hand it out at the counter.

    ChatGPT prompt

    Photorealistic lifestyle photo, landscape 3:2 (1536 x 1024). A shop window decorated for the holidays with garlands and lights, a poster with a large QR code and a gift-box icon in the middle, snowy street reflected in the glass. The QR code is a clean, generic black-and-white QR pattern, sharp and in focus, clearly the subject of the photo. Warm natural light, shallow depth of field, soft shadows, editorial magazine look. Colour palette: warm off-white (#F4F2ED), charcoal (#16181D) and muted gold accents (#C9952B). No readable text, letters, numbers, logos or brand names anywhere in the image, no watermark.
