Can I get a vertical (portrait) format for a cover?

Add "Output aspect ratio: 3:4 portrait, suitable for journal cover layout" and the model will recompose accordingly.

Upgrade to Journal-Cover Impact Style

Polish a scientific figure into a Science / Nature cover-style hero visual while keeping the data structure intact.

When to use this prompt

When a figure has been accepted and you want to submit a cover-image candidate version.

The prompt

Refine this scientific figure to achieve a Science or Nature journal-cover-style visual impact.

Requirements:
- Preserve the underlying scientific structure: data positions, axes, the relative regions and quantities. The figure must remain scientifically faithful.
- Amplify visual storytelling: heightened contrast, dramatic but tasteful color grading, a sense of atmosphere or scale.
- Use a clean, modern scientific palette: warm tones (crimson, amber) for high-risk / high-impact regions, cool tones (deep teal, indigo) for low-risk / baseline regions.
- Improve clarity and spacing: legends and axis labels should remain present but understated.
- Optional: add a subtle subject framing (e.g., a horizon line, a focal cell, a prominent peak) to anchor the eye.

Do NOT:
- Change quantitative values.
- Remove labels or legends.
- Add fictional features that did not exist in the source figure.

Output: a publication-quality cover-candidate image, suitable for submission as a journal-cover concept.

Variations

Editorial illustration variant

Re-imagine the figure as a flat-design editorial illustration in the style of Quanta Magazine: simplified geometric shapes, restrained 3-color palette, minimal but striking composition.

Tips

Always say "preserve scientific structure". Cover-style edits routinely drift toward fiction.
Specify which palette mood (warm/cool) maps to which semantics. Otherwise, color choices are arbitrary.
Keep legends and labels present but understated. Cover-style without legends loses scientific credibility.
