Reference image tips

Preserve what matters

Tell Seedream5 Pro which parts of the reference should stay stable: product shape, pose, color palette, crop, or layout. Then describe what should change: background, lighting, material, season, or mood.

Avoid overloading prompts

Do not combine too many styles or scene changes in one request. For commercial imagery, clarity usually beats long adjective chains.
