Blog image generation is not a one-time task.
If you publish often, cost and repeatability matter.
Eyecatch images need a stable workflow
A blog eyecatch does not need to be perfect art every time.
It needs to be clear, readable, and good enough to support the article.
Cost changes the habit
If each image feels expensive, you hesitate to generate or revise it.
A cheaper workflow makes it easier to create images consistently.
The important checks
For blog images, I care about these points.
- The subject is visible
- The image fits 16:9
- It does not contain unwanted text
- It matches the article
- It is not too dark
The point
The best image system is the one I can keep using without slowing down publishing.
