The myth is you tell AI to create something and it is done. That isn’t how it worked with a watermark image I wanted to brand some quote images that I created.

Originally the watermark was created using Copilot by asking it to create a circular watermark image featuring a literary muse with the URL. Of course, it misspelled the URL and added nonsense characters of text in the upper arc.

I used MS Paint to copy textured blocks of the frame over the bad text…very slowly. I used MS PowerPoint to add the arced Word Art to the frame.

For the top text, I decided I wanted a Greek motto, not a Latin one, as Calliope was a Greek muse. Copilot provided the Ἑγωιστικός Κόσμος (Egoistikós Kósmos) as the Greek equivalent to “Selfish World,” which is the story universe for my draft fiction.
