PROMPTED – Artistic Effects
by Dave Seeram
Prompted shows you how to transform your own photographs into ten signature artistic effects that Photoshop simply cannot produce on its own. Papercraft dioramas, whimsical stop-motion scenes, manga panels, street art murals, watercolour blooms, and more. Each effect is built from your photograph using a free tool you can open in any web browser.
Photoshop has no path to go from your beautiful photographs to the type of effects in this collection. That does not make it any less essential. It just means there is a whole category of creative work that lives outside its reach. Prompted lives there.
These are not Photoshop effects. They are transformations Photoshop was never built to make, and there is no software to install. Enjoy!

Ten Artistic Effects.
Beyond What Photoshop Can Do.
Created With Free Tools.
Prompted shows you how to transform your own photographs into ten signature artistic effects that Photoshop has no path to produce on its own. Papercraft dioramas, whimsical stop-motion scenes, manga panels, street art murals, watercolour blooms, and more. Each effect is built from your photograph using a free tool you can open in any web browser.
It Adds to What You Already Do.
It Does Not Replace It.
Photoshop has no path to go from your beautiful photographs to the type of effects in this collection. That does not make Photoshop any less essential. It just means there is a whole category of creative work that lives outside its reach. Prompted lives there. Your Photoshop skills, and your investment in them, stay completely intact.
The Tools Are Free.
From OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft.
Every effect in this collection is created using ChatGPT, Gemini, or Microsoft Copilot. Three free tools, built by three of the largest technology companies on earth, each with a working free tier that produces the results in the collection. No subscription. No software to install. Nothing added to your monthly costs. The collection is yours, and the engines that bring the effects to life cost you nothing, forever.
Ten Signature Effects
Each one comes with the written prompt that produces it, modification options to make it your own, and notes on which platform produces the most faithful result. The photograph is yours. The direction is yours. The result is unmistakably your own.
Effect 01
Layered Papercraft Diorama
Transforms your photograph into a dimensional paper art scene, with cut paper layers, soft shadows, tactile edges, and a handmade storybook display feel.
Effect 02
Fridge Door Crayon Sketch
Reimagines your photograph as a charming crayon drawing, full of loose lines, playful colour, childlike sincerity, and the warmth of art proudly displayed at home.
Effect 03
Keepsake Figurine
Turns your subject into a carefully crafted collectible figurine, posed inside a miniature scene with soft lighting, small details, and a polished keepsake quality.
Effect 04
Something Strange
Reimagines your subject as a handcrafted gothic puppet in an eerie miniature scene. Carved features, stitched fabric, expressive lighting, and strange charm.
Effect 05
Splash Artist
Renders your photograph as a flowing watercolour painting, with pigment blooming across the page and edges that dissolve into open space.
Effect 06
Luminous Energy
Transforms your subject into a glowing figure made from light, with luminous strands, colour, motion, and an ethereal sense of energy.
Effect 07
Pulp & Pigment
Turns your photograph into a bold graphic novel panel, all heavy ink, dramatic shadow, saturated pigment, and printed page texture.
Effect 08
Once Upon a Panel
Reshapes your image into a manga inspired panel, complete with crisp linework, tonal shading, expressive framing, and comic page energy.
Effect 09
Impasto Unbound
Recreates your image in thick, sculpted oil paint, with raised brushstrokes, rich texture, and the weight of a gallery painting.
Effect 10
Scrapbook Artistry
Transforms your image into a layered scrapbook style artwork, with paper textures, annotations, gentle illustration, and a personal keepsake feel.
Plus the Complete Manual

Section Five
Why This Matters
A short, honest essay on what these tools mean for working artists, why the hesitation is reasonable, and why engaging with them carefully is the most artistic position to take.

A Word About Why This Product Exists
This Is the Second Release in a $50,000 Effort
to Fund the Next Chapter of PhotographyBB.
The industry that photographers and digital artists have built their craft inside of has been rewritten faster than most of us expected. PhotographyBB is in the middle of a fundraising effort to make sure new and emerging artists have practical resources to find their footing, and experienced creatives have real support as the landscape continues to shift. Prompted is one of the resources that comes out of that effort. Your purchase is what makes the next one possible.
“Every Prompted purchase helps fund more resources like this one. You don’t just walk away with the collection. You become part of what comes next.”

Honest Questions, Direct Answers
A Photoshop effect adjusts what is already in your photograph. These effects transform your photograph into something Photoshop’s engine cannot produce, no matter how skilled the operator. A portrait becoming a hand-crafted puppet, a manga panel, a watercolour painting. Photoshop has no path to those outcomes from a single source image.
These effects are not a replacement for Photoshop. They live alongside it, handling a different category of creative work entirely. Your Photoshop skills remain just as valuable. Prompted simply extends what you can do with the same photograph you would have edited in Photoshop anyway.
No. Every prompt in this collection begins with the photograph you took. The light you found, the moment you saw, the subject you brought to the lens. Those things cannot be generated. What follows is just another way of finishing the work.
The same question was asked of darkroom dodging and burning, of Photoshop layers, of every tool that came after the shutter button. A tool used with intent is not a shortcut. It is a brush. What you do with it is what makes the work yours.
No. Every effect in the collection runs on ChatGPT, Gemini, or Microsoft Copilot. Each has a working free tier you open in any web browser. Nothing to install. Nothing added to your monthly costs.
They are real, and the collection does not pretend otherwise. Section One addresses them directly. The rest of the collection is built around using these platforms in a way that keeps your own work, and your own creative voice, at the centre of every output.
Thank you for being part of what we are building.
With genuine gratitude, Dave at PhotographyBB
