Some UI tests with it:
Warcraft 3 style agentic dev interface: https://image.non.io/cd9ea5cd-8ed7-44e0-ad3f-480ff0e51875.we...
Overall it used the reference images I gave it a bit better than gpt-image-2. I noticed 2 had issues getting the blue button just right. 2.5 nailed it.
A "John Politics" meme site: https://image.non.io/d2922164-fa96-4d07-a141-2febadb02939.we...
Did very well modifying the pose while keeping the appearance of Glenn Powell. gpt-image-2 had a lot of the "fried" look for some of his skin in prior designs I did for johnpolitics.com
A cyberpunk inspired ramen website: https://image.non.io/8d5d8f10-0f0f-4d91-b5ea-33af7538b150.we...
Dark mode sites surfaced the fried look quite a bit in prior models, but this definitely looks better on that front. One thing that looks perhaps worse though is the microglyphs - note the teal lines to the bottom right of the ramen, they're kinda blurry / not straight.
Overall fixed some of the main issues / gripes I had with gpt-image-2
The WC3 one is fun. Definitely feels close to what I remember.

I can forgive the randumb placement of chains but not that sovlless icon of a person from the wow era. wc3 era UI would've used a character portrait.
You have to know that the first one is fine and the next two are pretty horrible, right?
That seems very subjective, can you elaborate? I think the results can be worked with
The 'cyberpunk' one is incredibly bland and uninspired. That may be the goal of the political site, as a form of satire.
But reducing a style with a wealth of cultural material to draw on (literature, fashion, cinema, gaming, industrial design) to 'dark with turquoise/pink highlights, cut corners on rectangles, some random diagonal lines, some token Japanese characters and a lazy neon-style logo' feels like a miss.
If this was from a human designer I was working with, I'd be having a serious conversation about effort.
Love the John Politics page, utterly slick completely bland and phoney. Assume it’s a meme i missed, love it.
