By skyforbes me.
For text, small tweaks matter. For photos, I just needed
something that looked like… me. No cosplay smiles. No
plastic skin. No 80‑token prompt recipes.
I tried a bunch of image tools. Great for art. Terrible for
identity. My daily posts stalled because I ran out of
decent photos.
Then I tested a different idea. Make the model know me
first. Make prompting almost optional.
Mid streak I tried
looktara.com. You upload 30 solo
photos once. It trains a private model of you in about 10
minutes. Then you can create unlimited solo photos that
still look like a clean phone shot. It is built by a LinkedIn
creators community for daily posters. Private. Deletable.
No group composites.
The magic is not a magic prompt. It is likeness. When
the model knows your face, simple lines work.
Plain‑English lines that worked for me "me, office
headshot, soft light" "me, cafe table, casual tee" "me,
desk setup, friendly smile" "me, on stage, warm light"
Why this feels like something ChatGPT could copy
prompt minimization user identity context (with consent)
quality guardrails before output fast loop inside a
posting workflow
What changed in 30 days I put one photo of me on
every post. Same writing. New presence. Profile visits
climbed. DMs got warmer. Comments started using the
word "saw". As in "saw you on that pricing post".
Beginner friendly playbook start with 30 real photos from your camera roll train a private model make a 10‑photostarter pack keep one background per week delete anything uncanny without debate say you used AI if asked
Safety rules I keep no fake locations no body edits no
celebrity look alikes export monthly and clean up old
sets
Tiny SEO terms I looked up and used once no prompt

Why this matters to the ChatGPT crowd Most people do
not want to learn 50 prompt tricks to look human. They
want a photo that fits the post today. A system that
reduces prompt burden and increases trust wins.
If you want my plain‑English prompt list and the
1‑minute posting checklist, comment prompts and I will
paste it. If you know a better way to make identity‑true
images with near‑zero prompting, teach me. I will try it
tomorrow.
