The Toy in the Title
A toy-shop cartoon cover — one huge slanted black title with a character window punched into it, doodads in the gaps, one loud accent colour. Eight fields.


Two runs of the same template. A play-wedge mascot in indigo beside a grinning record with a tonearm for a sword in chrome yellow — same window punched through slanted caps, same fat outlines.
Generated from this template with the fields shown above — the robot grins from the window mid-word, the three doodads land in the letter gaps, and every text shares the same slant. Run-to-run quirks: which letters the window covers shifts with the title's length, and doodad placement reshuffles; the flat fills and uniform outlines hold every time.

The Toy in the Title
Produce ONE image: a landscape cartoon cover whose title carries a character window, in the fixed style world below. Follow every line. Replace only the FIELDS block; the style itself is not negotiable.
First — do you have the fields?
If any field below still has braces around it, stop and ask. Put all the questions in one short message, and show the example under each one so they can see the shape of a useful answer. Wait for the replies, then draw. Never fill a brace yourself: a value you invented is a value nobody asked for, and it will look exactly as considered as the ones they did give you.
Ask in whatever language they are writing to you in. Translate the questions and the examples; do not make someone read English to tell you what they want.
The examples are only examples. If someone answers a question, use their answer; never fall back to the example because you prefer it.
If the fields are already filled in, ignore this and carry on.
Fields — replace these eight lines only
- Top left info: {a name or ownership} e.g. VIBARY LAB
- Top middle info: {a field or category, may break to two lines} e.g. AI DESIGN / VIBE CODING
- Top right info: {a place or attribute} e.g. IN THE BROWSER
- The big title: {one word of six letters or more} e.g. SHOWREEL
- The window and its mascot: {the character, their prop, and the pattern behind them} e.g. a round chibi robot with headphone ears holding up a glowing play wedge, over violet-and-white concentric rings
- Three doodads: {three tiny cartoon elements, dot-separated} e.g. an outlined four-point star · a small square with cartoon eyes · a peace-sign cartoon hand
- Bottom line: {a version, date or number} e.g. 2026 LAUNCH EDITION
- Accent colour: {one high-saturation colour} e.g. violet #5B5BD6
Print only these words and draw only these things. The style may not invent a mascot, a doodad or a slogan.
The style world — fixed
- Landscape 3:2 on pure white, generous margins all around — clean air is part of the voice.
- Everything slants together: one consistent italic lean shared by every piece of text on the page.
- The top row carries the three info groups spread evenly — left, centre (two lines allowed), right — in small heavy slanted sans with a thin cartoon outline.
- The title owns the middle: ultra-heavy slanted caps at about sixty percent of the frame, tight-set into one block. Punched into its middle sits a rectangular cartoon window with a thin dark edge, sized to cover one or two letters. Inside it: the named mascot with their prop, drawn chibi-simple over the named retro pattern — rings, dots or stripes.
- The doodads — exactly the three named — scatter through the letter gaps and edges, small and outlined, sizes staggered.
- The bottom line sits centred in the same small slanted voice, answering the top row.
- Colour law: white ground, black type, thin dark outlines on every element, and the one accent used inside the window and on part of the doodads. Flat fills only — no gradients, no shadows, no textures.
Every cover must
- ✓ carry the eight fields verbatim — words, mascot, doodads
- ✓ keep one shared slant across all text
- ✓ let the window genuinely cover a letter or two
- ✓ hold flat fills with uniform outlines throughout
- ✓ breathe — margins and gaps stay open
Never
- ✕ a second accent colour, gradients, or soft shadows
- ✕ a detailed or realistic mascot — chibi lines only
- ✕ extra doodads beyond the three, or clutter in the margins
- ✕ an upright title — the slant is the signature
- ✕ any words beyond the eight fields' text
The result
A cover that plays: your word huge and leaning, your character grinning through the window it punched in it, your colour doing the shouting — toy-shop energy, portfolio polish.
The whole template, in one piece. The steps below are the entire workflow.
How to use it
- Copy the whole template with the button above.
- Replace the eight FIELDS lines — the window-and-mascot line is the cover's face; describe the character and their backdrop in one breath.
- Paste it into any image-capable agent or model, in one message. One run returns the landscape cover.
- Series it by keeping the frame and swapping title, mascot and accent — issue after issue, unmistakably one shop.

Before it runs
- Eight fields of your own content — the style draws exactly your mascot and prints exactly your words.
- A title long enough to lose a letter to the window and still read — six letters and up works.
- One accent with punch; the style rations it, so a weak colour disappears.
When to reach for it
When the cover should grin — a maker's portfolio, a toy or IP brand, a playful studio's showcase. The mischief is the style's; the mascot and colour are yours.
What changes
- A finished landscape cover on clean white: a massive slanted bold title with a rectangular cartoon window embedded mid-word, hiding a letter or two behind your mascot.
- The mascot slot stages your character inside the window over retro rings, dots or stripes — the cover's beating heart.
- Three top info groups and one bottom line frame the page in the same slanted bold voice, so the system reads as one typeface family having fun.
- Doodads live in the letter gaps — a starburst, a block with eyes, a cartoon hand — scattered small and outlined like everything else.
- One high-saturation accent takes the window and a few doodads; black, white and outlines do the rest.
Pairs with
- Cut From the PictureThree stacked words knocked out of a photograph, filled with the picture's own colour, above the strip of image they were cut from. Three fields.
- Every Letter a ThingOne word where no two letters are made of the same stuff — one is glass, one is a shell, one is a fish — floating over a road that runs to the horizon. Five fields.
- Four Cards, One PersonOne person sits in a bare studio while four frosted-glass cards hover around them — intro, skills, contact, link — with their title set enormous behind their shoulders. Six fields.
