About this skill
Orange Line Illustration
Generates black-and-white line illustrations for articles, principles, covers, and more. Supports two workflows: creating a single 16:9 concept illustration, or turning an article/outline into a set of illustrated HTML slides. The style is consistent—fine black hand-drawn lines, pure white background, a single warm orange accent, tiny human figures against overwhelmingly large objects, and a quiet gray caption in the lower right corner.
Use Cases
- Create concept illustrations for articles, principles, metaphors, or covers
- Turn a speech outline or article into illustrated HTML slides
- Produce cohesive, visually focused illustrations that convey ideas at a glance

Notice the scale: people are always tiny, objects are always vast. This imbalance is the signature dramatic effect of the style.

Core Capabilities
- Single concept illustration: turn a key judgment, principle, or metaphor into a 16:9 illustration; generate multiple candidates for you to choose from
- Illustrated slides: convert an article or outline into a set of HTML slides, each page featuring one illustration; supports batch generation and selection
- Three fixed character IPs:
- Xiao Cheng (default): a geometric stick figure drawn in black lines with an orange dot on the chest; quiet and hard‑working
- Xian Ren (Line Person): a minimalist human shape—round head, single curved body line, single‑line limbs—signaling “someone is here” with the fewest strokes
- Xian Mao (Line Cat): a kitten symbol drawn in 10–12 strokes; open arcs, two dot eyes, two ear strokes; the viewer’s brain completes the rest
- A consistent style specification: fine black ink lines with slight hand‑drawn wobble, pure white background, single warm orange accent

How It Works
Single Illustration
- Extract a core key sentence from your input
- Design a concrete visual scene for that sentence
- Generate multiple candidate illustrations
- You pick the final result
Slide Deck
- Read your article or outline
- Draft a slide outline and ask for your confirmation
- Batch‑generate illustrations page by page
- After you select images, output an HTML file containing the full slide deck
What You Need to Provide
- The text content you want illustrated (article paragraphs, principles, metaphors, speech outlines, etc.)
- Your choice of workflow: single illustration or slide deck
What You Will Get
- For single illustration: one or more 16:9 images in the Orange Line style
- For slide deck: an HTML file with all illustrated slides, ready to view in a browser
Usage Examples
- “Create three orange‑line style illustrations for this article”
- “Turn this article into an orange‑line PPT”
Choosing a Workflow
- Single illustration: best for covers, article passages, key ideas, or metaphors that need a standalone visual
- Slide deck: best when you need to turn longer content into a multi‑page visual presentation, with each slide focused on a single core sentence
Important Notes
- Illustrations must strictly follow the style spec: pure white background, fine black hand‑drawn lines, only one warm orange accent
#F97316, tiny human figures (no fill), and a caption in the lower right corner - Character IPs have fixed definitions and must not be altered; they must also bear the core action of the scene
