Where these come from
Every prompt is from an openly licensed dataset and keeps its licence. We only cleaned them up: one line of plain words, no model weights or flags, nothing under 40 or over 400 characters, no repeats. Anything about minors, anything sexual or violent, anything naming a real person, and anything describing a picture that already exists rather than one to make was left out.
The tags are the Studio's own: its framing, angle, pose, wardrobe, accessories, place, light and expression choices, read from each prompt's words. Style and who's in it are extra context, shown in grey.

Prompts often name an artist's style; the pictures you make are still covered by the content policy.
