What you can make

Choose an area tier. The default is 2K, and the file is a PNG.
Long prompts
Prompts can run long. Turn expansion off when the wording should stay as written.
How a request is built
No reference image runs text to image. One or more references run an edit and stay in upload order.
Prompt notes
Name each reference by its upload position, and turn expansion off when you need the prompt kept.
Image 1, Image 2, …
The first upload is Image 1 and the sixteenth is Image 16. Mention them in that order.

Leave expansion on to let the model rewrite the prompt, or switch it off to keep your words.
