Head-to-Head Poster
A match-up poster for anything with two sides — built so the layout does not quietly pick a winner before the contest starts. Six fields.
We made two examples: an indoor build-off final under dark screens, and an outdoor rowing final at first light. The second is the harder test: North Quay has six letters and Old Harbour Crew has sixteen, yet both tabs come out the same width, with more space around the shorter name.
You get tabs of identical width, the divider on the true centre of the page, a plain INFO square where a scan code would go, and a background with no text competing with the poster. That way neither side looks like the winner before the contest starts. If your two names differ a lot in length, check that the tabs really match before you use it.

Head-to-Head Poster
What this makes
A match-up poster for anything with two sides — built so the layout does not quietly pick a winner before the contest starts. Six fields.
Produce ONE image, 2:3 portrait: a match-up poster announcing two
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 six FIELDS lines. Deliberately check the two names against each other — if they differ a lot in length, the template will hold the tabs equal and shrink the longer name to fit, which is the correct trade.
- Paste it into any image-capable agent or model, in one message. One run returns the poster.
- Check it by folding: picture the poster creased down its vertical middle. The two tabs should land on each other, and the divider should land on the crease. If it does not, one side is winning the layout.

Before it runs
- Two sides with names you are willing to set at the same size. If one has to be smaller to fit, the poster is telling the reader something you did not mean.
- A scene with no readable signage in it. Screens, banners and scoreboards in the photograph become a second, invented text layer.
- One theme colour and one metal. Two metals turn ceremony into clutter.
When to reach for it
When two named sides meet: a final, a debate, a head-to-head, a launch framed as a challenge. Templates in this style describe the VS bar in detail and never say the two halves must weigh the same, so the side with the longer name gets the bigger tab and the poster has already decided.
What changes
- One ceremonial poster: a tinted photographic scene, a heavy two-line title, a centred match-up bar, the date, and a footer band.
- The two sides are held to equal width, equal type size and mirrored geometry, so folding the poster down its middle would put one tab exactly on the other.
- The divider sits on the poster's true vertical centreline rather than wherever the longer name pushes it.
- No fake scannable code — a poster that shows a working-looking QR that encodes nothing is a lie you can hold in your hand.
- The background scene is chosen to carry no legible text of its own, so the poster has one text layer instead of two.
Pairs with
- 3D Character Screen BreakoutA soft-3D character coming out of a screen — with the crossing proved: named parts behind the plane, named parts through it, and the surface visibly giving way. Five fields.
- Bakery Food PosterA bakery-counter food poster — one dish shot large under a Didot title — with the overlap specified as a construction so the picture layers instead of stacking. Six fields.
- Barcode PosterA barcode poster in two colours — with the code built on a base module, guard bars and a numeral row, so it reads as a scanned object rather than a stripe field. Five fields.
