To change the face or text, simply edit the bracketed sections below.
Main Subject Replacement (Front): [INSERT YOUR FACE / MAIN SUBJECT HERE]
Tombstone Text (Large, Bold): [INSERT TOMBSTONE TEXT, e.g., RIP WEB DEV]
Icon Selection: [KEEP THE HTML/CSS/JS ICONS OR SWAP TO DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGY LOGOS]
Background Subjects (Back): [INSERT YOUR DESIRED BACKGROUND CHARACTERS, e.g., three sad businessmen]
Floating Text/Question: [INSERT FLOATING QUESTION, e.g., ?]
Detailed Prompt (Copy and Paste this block):
A high-converting, professional cinematic YouTube thumbnail with dramatic, high-contrast studio lighting. The overall composition and text placement must mirror the reference image, ignoring the timestamp in the bottom right corner.
Foreground Subject: In the center of the frame, replace the original man with [INSERT YOUR FACE AND UPPER BODY HERE], making sure the new subject is looking intently at the camera with a serious, concerned, or confused expression, wearing a dark t-shirt.
Left Element: On the left side of the frame, standing on a grassy patch, is a detailed, weather-beaten stone tombstone.
Tombstone Text (Crucial - Render with exact typography): Bold, black, sans-serif text reading: "[INSERT TOMBSTONE TEXT, e.g., RIP WEB DEV]" (on two lines).
Technology Icons: Below the text, there are three crisp, colorful square logos: HTML5, CSS3, and JS (JavaScript).
Right Elements: In the blurred background, three professional businessmen in dark suits are standing side-by-side with heads bowed, looking downcast. Each man is holding a stack of white papers clearly labeled with the text "RESUME".
Floating Elements:
Question Mark: To the upper-right of the central subject's head, a large, simple, black question mark "[INSERT FLOATING QUESTION, e.g., ?]" is floating in the dark sky.
Background and Lighting: The background is a dark, moody, overcast, and foggy graveyard/field. The lighting is dramatic and directional, creating a strong rim light on the subject and separating the foreground from the background. The focus is sharp on the subject and the tombstone text, with a shallow depth of field for the background figures. The aspect ratio is 16:9.
