GPT Image 2 AI Image Generator
Choose GPT Image 2 when a detailed visual brief, approved reference images, and a deliberate trade-off between output tier and framing are part of the task.
GPT Image 2 task directions
These local image examples are attributed to the GPT Image family. They show task directions, not a benchmark between model versions.
Every card identifies whether it is a verified model-family example or a visual reference. Reference cards are not model benchmarks or before-and-after claims.
- Input contract
- Text prompt + up to 5 reference images
- Current controls
- Prompt length: Up to 20,000 characters · Output resolution: 1K / 2K / 4K · Framing: 16 aspect-ratio choices; 2K: 11, 4K: 11
- Selection boundary
- Use 1K when one of the five framing options unavailable at 2K and 4K is required. Compare Nano Banana Pro when the task needs up to eight references, or a text-only model when no source image should guide the result.

What you can control with GPT Image 2
Balance framing against output tier
GPT Image 2 currently exposes 16 framing choices at 1K. Five of those choices are not available at 2K or 4K, so make that trade-off before generating.
Add reference images when they help
GPT Image 2 currently supports up to 5 reference images. Only upload source material you are allowed to use.
Choose the available output settings
Current output tiers are 1K / 2K / 4K, with 16 aspect-ratio choices; 2K: 11, 4K: 11. Use the options shown in the workspace before generation.

When to choose GPT Image 2
Detailed briefs and references with a 1K, 2K, or 4K framing trade-off.
Current workflow fit
Choose GPT Image 2 when a detailed visual brief, approved reference images, and a deliberate trade-off between output tier and framing are part of the task.
When to compare another model
Use 1K when one of the five framing options unavailable at 2K and 4K is required. Compare Nano Banana Pro when the task needs up to eight references, or a text-only model when no source image should guide the result.
How to create an image with GPT Image 2
Resolve the delivery frame before writing the long brief: the chosen output tier determines which framing options remain available.
- 1
Lock the output constraint first
Decide whether the exact frame or the higher output tier is non-negotiable, then write the visual brief and add approved references.
- 2
Add references when needed
Upload approved reference images only when a defined visual starting point will help the result.
- 3
Choose output controls
Choose the result that fits the job from the current 1K / 2K / 4K options and 16 aspect-ratio choices; 2K: 11, 4K: 11.
- 4
Generate and review
Before public use, inspect visible text, product details, people, marks, and framing in the result.
Checks before you create and publish
- Treat the workspace as current
- Model availability and settings can change. Use the options shown in the current workspace before you submit.
- Use approved source material
- When you upload a reference image, confirm that you are allowed to use and publish it for the current project.
- Review the generated result
- Manually check any visible text, product information, and brand element that must be accurate before publishing.
GPT Image 2 FAQ
- What is GPT Image 2?
- GPT Image 2 is the GPT image generator option described on this ImageStyle model page, with detailed prompts, reference images, and 1K, 2K, or 4K output choices. The search phrase "GPT Image 2 OpenAI" identifies the model family; this page describes ImageStyle's current integration and controls.
- Do all GPT Image 2 framing options work at 4K?
- No. The current configuration has 16 framing choices at 1K, while five of them are unavailable at 2K and 4K. Check the workspace before submitting.
- Can I use reference images with GPT Image 2?
- Yes. The current workflow supports up to 5 reference images. Only upload images you are allowed to use.
- What output settings does GPT Image 2 currently offer?
- Current output tiers are 1K / 2K / 4K, with 16 aspect-ratio choices; 2K: 11, 4K: 11. The generation workspace is the source of truth for the options available at submission.
- What should I prepare before using GPT Image 2?
- Prepare a clear visual direction. If the current model supports reference images, add approved images only when they help preserve a visual starting point.
- Can I publish a generated result without review?
- No. Before public use, manually review text, product details, people, marks, and any other element that must be accurate.
