Free Image Generator and image maker templates

Use this branch when the asset needs both text and layout, not only resize or compression. Start with the Free Image Generator for a generic browser-based template image generator, then pick the page that matches the publishing intent so the copy, preset, and handoff stay narrow.

Route chooser: pick the next tool in 3 clicks

Read the question row first, then open only the tool that matches your current constraint. Stop each route when the exit condition is met.

Route A: Publish ready image files

Use Image Resizer if the image dimensions are wrong. Use Image Compressor if file size still blocks platform upload. Use EXIF Metadata Remover if privacy or metadata hygiene is required.

  • Decision rule: dimension must match required slot and size should be within target budget.
  • Stop condition: one visual preview pass passes and checks are within expected quality range.
  • Handoff: if still format dependent, go to SVG to PNG Converter or Downloads.

Route B: Brand and web UI consistency

Start at Color Palette Extractor. If contrast fails, switch to Contrast Checker before publishing.

  • Decision rule: all foreground and background pairs must pass your required standard.
  • Stop condition: palette tokens are captured in hex and converted to CSS variables.
  • Handoff: if this is for a full style refresh, continue to Color and UI and open a guide in Guides.

Route C: Site or app asset prep

Run Favicon Generator from a clean square source. For SVG logos, use SVG to PNG Converter before any additional size-specific export.

  • Decision rule: output set must include required icon sizes before packaging.
  • Stop condition: all required icon files generate successfully and open in-browser check passes.
  • Handoff: route any design question to Web Image Prep for a full prep checklist.

Route D: Faster production planning in Photoshop

Open Photoshop Shortcut Finder to confirm equivalent commands and naming. If you are moving non-desk workflows, open Photoshop Hub first.

  • Decision rule: choose OS and tool context before searching for commands.
  • Stop condition: one action sequence with menu path and shortcut is confirmed.
  • Handoff: if output will be shared in a web context, continue with a Fundy image export route.

Workflow hubs and direct paths

Web Image Prep

Use this when the task includes 2 or more assets and a hard deadline. The standard order is resize, compress, convert, then metadata cleanup and final naming review.

  • Stop only after both dimension and payload fit are met.
  • Use Metadata Remover before final handoff if files will be shared publicly.

Color and UI

Use this hub when one run of tools is not enough to solve color consistency for a page system.

  • Start with extraction, validate combinations, then create reusable values.
  • Handoff to Contrast Checker if any pair approaches edge values.

Prompt Planning

Use for brief writing only, and copy final prompt text into your own generator workflow. This page supports planning, not remote inference.

  • Stop condition: brief includes output type, style constraints, and negative terms.
  • Handoff: if visual assets are needed, return to image preparation tools for output exports.

Photoshop, archives, and legacy lookup

Photoshop Hub

For speed, use the hub when daily operations need repeatable commands, shortcuts, and performance reminders.

  • Decision rule: use in-browser lookup before opening local notes.
  • Handoff: if you need historical references, continue to GFX^TM Archive.

GFX^TM Archive

Use as a historical index when you are looking for older resource links and naming conventions without rehosting removed files.

  • Stop condition: link and context match your date or campaign reference.
  • Handoff: for current workflows, return to active tools in Tools.

Creative Workflow Guides

Use guidance when handoffs are unclear. Guides should justify tool order, not replace tool results.

  • Decision rule: open a guide only when a previous route has an exception.
  • Handoff: if an exact target size is missing, go to the matching tool and run it directly.
