Step-by-Step Tutorial: How to Use DsgnPop Image Studio Effectively

1. Visit the Image Studio

🔗 https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/dsgnpop/image

2. Choose Your Image Size

This is the most important step, because your image must match the platform you’re designing for.

Ask yourself:

• Am I designing for Pinterest? (Use 2:3)
• Am I creating a YouTube thumbnail? (16:9)
• Am I posting an Instagram Reel? (9:16)
• Do I need a clean blog hero image? (16:9 or 21:9)

3. Write Your Image Prompt

Keep it clear and descriptive. Use ChatGPT or other AI tool available to write you prompt.

Example:
“Modern minimalistic desk setup with laptop, coffee, and sunlight – soft lighting – inspirational affiliate marketing workspace”

4. Select Art Style (Optional)

Choose:

• General art
• Traditional art
• Illustration and Design
• Thematic
• Decorative/Abstract

5. Generate the Image

Click Generate, wait a few seconds, and view your result.

6. Download or Check in Gallery to Use Later

You can reuse your image later for:

• Blog banners
• YouTube thumbnails
• Social posts
• Ads
• Pinterest pins

Tips for Better Results

• Use different ratios of the same prompt.

For example, your blog hero (16:9) → Pinterest pin (2:3) → Instagram post (1:1) can all use the same concept but in multiple sizes.

• Keep branding consistent.

Use similar colors, style, and tone for all images.

• Prioritize vertical formats for mobile.

Most users consume content vertically.

The Wealthy Affiliate’s DsgnPop AI Image Studio is an incredibly powerful tool when you know how to select the correct image ratios for each platform. With this guide, you can now confidently create:

• Pinterest pins that go viral
• YouTube thumbnails that stand out
• Instagram posts with high engagement
• Facebook banners that look professional
• Website hero images that set the tone

If Wealthy Affiliate adds “platform labels” beside each ratio in the future (as suggested by Gail-UK and supported by other members), this tool will become even more intuitive.
