-Prompt notes for Raphael AI, a free AI image generator - https://raphael.app
+Notes kept on git.netbsd.club about using [Raphael AI](https://raphael.app), a free AI image generator that runs in the browser.
+
+Each episode or issue benefits from a distinctive cover. My workflow with the free Raphael AI image generator:
+
+## Tips
+
+1. Leave the top third quieter for the episode number.
+2. Review thumbnails at small size; that is how most people see them.
+3. Extract one concrete image from the episode topic, not an abstract idea.
+4. Keep a fixed frame or colour band so covers are recognisable in a feed.
+5. Generate square 3000x3000-friendly compositions for podcast directories.
+
+## Why Raphael AI
+
+- Free to use, with no install: open https://raphael.app and type a prompt.
+- Fast iterations make it practical to try several compositions.
+- Works for drafts, mock-ups and reference images; finish important assets with human review.
+
+## Responsible use
+
+Check generated images for errors before publishing, do not imitate real people without consent, and label AI-generated images where your audience expects it.
