## Prompt

```text
Create a vibrant pixel-art promotional collage showing a real portrait being transformed into a gaming-style pixel avatar. Canvas: wide 16:9 landscape banner, approximately 1200×675. Visual style: crisp retro 16-bit pixel art mixed with one realistic photo panel, thick black outlines, white sticker borders, halftone comic dots, teal and coral radial burst background, playful creator-studio atmosphere. Main subject: a large central pixel-art bust of {character_name} with {hair_color}, wearing a dark navy hoodie under an olive green jacket, facing forward; keep the face area as a soft anonymous placeholder or simplified blurred facial block, not a detailed identity. Left side: one large rounded-corner computer/photo window with three small circular window buttons at the top left, containing a realistic portrait of the same person in the same hoodie and jacket, with a thick mint-green frame. Between the photo window and the central avatar, place one bold white arrow pointing right to show transformation. Count the visible generated avatar outputs exactly: 5 total — 1 large central pixel avatar, 1 yellow comic-style square portrait near the top center-left with sparkle icons, 1 green comic-style square portrait at the top right with a white thought bubble, 1 blue comic-style square portrait at the right middle with expressive motion marks, and 1 small portrait displayed on a drawing tablet at the bottom left. Desk and studio details: include exactly 10 notable props — 1 black desk lamp glowing warm yellow on the far left, 1 potted leafy plant on the desk, 1 drawing tablet with colored tool bars, 1 stylus lying in front of it, 1 red mug with a white heart and steam, 2 small pixel figurines at the bottom left, 1 tiny green pixel creature, 1 wall shelf with a small pixel character figure, and 1 framed pixel heart picture on the wall. Background: dark cozy room on the far left with shelves and brick wall, transitioning into bright comic halftone rays behind the central avatar. Palette: saturated teal, mint, coral, yellow, navy, olive green, and black. Composition: dynamic, busy but readable, with the central avatar dominating the right half and the source photo dominating the left. Constraints: no readable text or logos, no watermark, no extra panels beyond the five counted avatar outputs, maintain a cheerful before-and-after transformation theme suitable for a free photo-to-pixel-avatar generator ad.
