ChatGPT Hoodie Layout Handoff: Write a Crop Specification

A ChatGPT hoodie layout handoff can turn your approved crop decisions into a specification a designer can follow. Supply the destination requirements you actually have, the intended image role and the garment boundaries that must remain intact. The output should organise these constraints rather than guess current platform sizes.

Make the visual decisions using the three-layout hoodie crop plan. This companion produces a written handoff with separate image, text and source requirements. It does not claim that a prompt alone can guarantee pixel-exact garment preservation.

Prepare a layout input worksheet

Keep example ratios separate from final specifications. If the real destination has not supplied dimensions, write “confirm before export.” Do not ask the model to fill the blank from memory. A text-safe area is a design requirement; it should not be achieved by narrowing the hoodie or manufacturing absent fabric.

Copy the specification prompt

Prepare a hoodie layout handoff from the supplied requirements. Return one block per destination with: confirmed format, image role, source ID, product boundary to preserve, approved text, text placement, crop limitations and unresolved questions. Keep example ratios labelled as examples. Do not invent current platform dimensions, prices or availability. Do not stretch garment proportions or assume missing background can be generated without changes. If the source cannot support the requested layout honestly, request a new source or propose a clearly labelled detail role for review.

Paste the approved headline exactly. If it contains a product claim, include the source for that claim or remove it. Avoid baking temporary prices into a reusable image without a maintenance plan. The article's live shopping link is a separate destination for current product details.

A filled fictional handoff

Imagine the brief contains a portrait product image and a landscape banner with an approved short heading. The portrait source already shows the full garment, while the banner has no confirmed text space. A useful output preserves the portrait plan and marks the banner as needing a wider source or a deliberate detail composition.

It should not solve the problem by shortening the torso or extending an unseen sleeve. The example is fictional and does not report a successful model edit. Its purpose is to show how a written handoff can expose an impossible combination before the designer spends time on it.

Use two targeted revisions

Keep the confirmed portrait specification unchanged. Revise only the banner block to ask for the missing source and list the text placement question.

Separate approved requirements from optional creative suggestions. Do not present a suggestion as a requirement from the destination.

After a revision, compare the wording with the original worksheet. Check that the approved headline remains exact and that an unknown has not acquired an invented pixel value. If the designer chooses another source, update the handoff's source ID rather than leaving the old file attached to a new composition.

Keep unresolved rows visible in the saved version. A later collaborator should be able to tell which statements came from evidence and which still need an answer, without reopening the original conversation.

Review before production

• Each destination has a distinct confirmed or unresolved status.
• Full-product views and detail crops are labelled differently.
• Product geometry is a constraint, not flexible filler.
• No temporary commercial fact was invented.
• The final image still requires source comparison.

Use the output as a draft production document. A human designer must judge the actual composition and a reviewer must inspect the exported result. General guidance for specifying context and boundaries appears in official OpenAI documentation.
