说实话，我不是专业设计师。每次脑子里冒出一个设计想法，想跟别人解释的时候就犯难了——尤其是跟AI聊天的时候，打了一大段文字，结果AI给我的设计完全不是那么回事。
后来我琢磨出一个土办法，还挺管用的：把想法"拼"出来给AI看。
具体怎么做的
先到处找灵感
我平时会逛逛Dribbble、Pinterest这些网站，看到顺眼的设计就截图保存。配色好看？截一张。布局舒服？截一张。按钮有意思？也截一张。反正不花钱，多截点备用。
然后拼到一起
把这些截图拖到PictriKit里，东拼西凑一下。比如这个网站的导航栏不错，那个App的按钮好看，再加上另一个页面的卡片布局——拼成一张"设计情绪板"。
关键是要标注清楚
光拼图还不够，得告诉AI你想要什么。我会在截图旁边写上：
- "配色就要这种感觉"
- "导航栏参考这个"
- "按钮要圆角的"
- "整体要简洁一点"
最后发给AI
复制图片，粘贴到AI对话框里。这次AI终于懂我了！给出来的设计跟我想的八九不离十。
为什么这招管用？
说白了就是"有图有真相"。与其花十分钟描述"我想要一个现代感的蓝色渐变按钮"，不如直接截个图，标注一句"就这种"。图片里的颜色、形状、阴影、间距，AI一眼就能看明白，比文字描述靠谱多了。
最后效果
用这个方法，我让AI帮我设计了一个小网站。从一开始脑子里模模糊糊的想法，到最后拿到设计稿，前后也就一个小时。
如果你也有类似的困扰，不妨试试。不用学什么专业软件，打开浏览器就能用。
I'm not a designer. Never was. But I've got ideas—lots of them. The problem? Every time I try to explain what I want to an AI, it just doesn't get it. I'd type out paragraphs describing my vision, and the AI would give me something completely different.
Then I figured out a workaround that actually works: show, don't tell.
Here's What I Do
Collect Screenshots Like a Magpie
I browse Dribbble, Pinterest, random websites—anywhere with good design. When I see something I like, I screenshot it. Nice colors? Screenshot. Cool layout? Screenshot. Interesting button? You guessed it—screenshot. They're free, so why not?
Mash Them Together
I drag all those screenshots into PictriKit and start combining. Maybe I like this site's navbar, that app's buttons, and another page's card layout. I piece them together into a visual mood board.
Add Notes (This Part's Important)
Just showing pictures isn't enough. I add text annotations to explain what I want:
- "I want colors like this"
- "Navbar should look like this one"
- "Rounded buttons, please"
- "Keep it clean and simple"
Send It to the AI
Copy the image, paste it into the AI chat. And finally—it gets it! The design comes back looking almost exactly like what I had in mind.
Why Does This Method Work?
Because "a picture is worth a thousand words." Instead of spending 10 minutes describing "I want a modern blue gradient button," just screenshot a button you like and annotate "I want this feeling." AI can extract more information from images: colors, shapes, shadows, spacing... things that are hard to describe precisely in words.
The Result
Using this method, I successfully got AI to help me design a website. From a vague initial idea to a clear design draft, the whole process took less than an hour.
If you have design ideas but don't know how to express them, try this method. No professional design software needed, no complex tools to learn. Just open PictriKit and start stitching your ideas together.
