nano-image-generator（纳米图像生成器）

Nano Image Generator

Generate images using Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Preview) for any visual asset needs. Supports reference images for style transfer and character consistency.

Quick Start

# Basic generation
python scripts/generate_image.py "A friendly robot mascot waving" --output ./mascot.png

# With style reference (keep same visual style)
python scripts/generate_image.py "Same style, new content" --ref ./reference.jpg --output ./new.png

Script Usage

python scripts/generate_image.py <prompt> --output <path> [options]

Required:

• prompt - Image description
• --output, -o - Output file path

Options:

• --aspect, -a - Aspect ratio (default: 1:1)

- Square: 1:1 - Portrait: 2:3, 3:4, 4:5, 9:16 - Landscape: 3:2, 4:3, 5:4, 16:9, 21:9

• --size, -s - Resolution: 1K, 2K (default), 4K
• --ref, -r - Reference image (can use multiple times, max 14)

Reference Images

Gemini supports up to 14 reference images for:

Style Transfer

Keep the visual style (colors, textures, mood) from a reference:

python scripts/generate_image.py "New scene with mountains, same visual style as reference" \
  --ref ./style-reference.jpg --output ./styled-mountains.png

Character Consistency

Maintain character appearance across multiple images:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Same character now in a forest setting" \
  --ref ./character.png --output ./character-forest.png

Multi-Image Fusion

Combine elements from multiple references:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Combine the style of first image with subject of second" \
  --ref ./style.png --ref ./subject.png --output ./combined.png

Serial Image Generation (Batch Workflow)

For generating a series with consistent style:

1. Generate first image
2. Use first image as --ref for subsequent images
3. Each new image inherits the established style

# Generate cover
python scripts/generate_image.py "Tech knowledge card cover" -o ./01-cover.png

# Generate subsequent cards with style reference
python scripts/generate_image.py "Card 2 content, same style" --ref ./01-cover.png -o ./02-card.png
python scripts/generate_image.py "Card 3 content, same style" --ref ./01-cover.png -o ./03-card.png

Workflow

1. Determine output location - Place images where contextually appropriate:

- App icons → ./assets/icons/ - Marketing → ./marketing/ - UI elements → ./src/assets/ - General → ./generated/

1. Craft effective prompts - Be specific and descriptive:

- Include style: "flat design", "3D rendered", "watercolor", "minimalist" - Include context: "for a mobile app", "website hero image" - Include details: colors, mood, composition - For references: mention "same style as reference" or "keep the visual style"

1. Choose appropriate settings:

- Icons/logos → --aspect 1:1 - Banners/headers → --aspect 16:9 or 21:9 - Mobile screens → --aspect 9:16 - Xiaohongshu cards → --aspect 3:4 - Photos → --aspect 3:2 or 4:3

Examples

App icon:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Minimalist flat design app icon of a lightning bolt, purple gradient background, modern iOS style" \
  --output ./assets/app-icon.png --aspect 1:1

Marketing banner:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Professional website hero banner for a productivity app, abstract geometric shapes, blue and white color scheme" \
  --output ./public/images/hero-banner.png --aspect 16:9

Xiaohongshu knowledge card:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Tech knowledge card, dark blue purple gradient, neon cyan accents, code block style, Chinese text '标题'" \
  --output ./xiaohongshu/card.png --aspect 3:4

Style transfer:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Transform this photo into watercolor painting style" \
  --ref ./photo.jpg --output ./watercolor.png

Character in new scene:

python scripts/generate_image.py "Same character from reference, now sitting in a cafe, warm lighting" \
  --ref ./character.png --output ./character-cafe.png --aspect 3:2

Prompt Tips

• Be specific - "A red apple on a wooden table" vs "an apple"
• Include style - "in the style of pixel art" or "photorealistic"
• Mention purpose - "for a children's book" affects the output style
• Describe composition - "centered", "rule of thirds", "close-up"
• Specify colors - Explicit color palettes yield better results
• Reference prompts - Use "same style as reference", "keep the visual aesthetic", "match the color palette"
• Avoid - Don't ask for complex text in images (use overlays instead)

Limitations

• Maximum 14 reference images per request
• Text rendering may be imperfect (better to overlay text separately)
• Very specific brand logos may not reproduce exactly
