Yesterday I discovered a method to create mockups for Zazzle products. I have some hip flasks in my shop which I need to promote more, so I was looking for mockups online. I only found ones which you have to pay for. I have an account on ChatGPT, so I wondered whether I could create mockups with ChatGPT. And yes, it is possible! I followed these steps:
- I went to "Downloads" and downloaded an image of the flask-
- I went to ChatGPT and uploaded said image.
- I wrote the following text: "Can you create a mockup with the above image? I want to show the flask standing on a table".
- I then got the following image:
I downloaded the image and I am using it now in my X promotion. In order to add it to the Zazzle mockups on the product page you have to enlarge it.
I hope this post is useful!

Super cool! Can you tell it to make it in a square aspect, or in the exact dimensions required by the media manager? I have not used ChatGPT very much at all yet.
Here's what I have cookin' over at Pinterest lately

I used the following prompt in ChatGPT and got the following result. In the previous prompt I didn't specify square and it defaulted to vertical.
"make a mockup for this backpack by placing it on a tree stump in a forest, the image is square"

I haven't found out that yet. However, when you upload the image using the media manager Zazzle asks you to crop the image. I am also using those images when I tweet my products, and with x/twitter there is no problem with the dimensions...

Wow, that's interesting! I might try a couple and see how it does. Can you do more specific instructions, like maybe a Christmas table, or a wedding bouquet in the back, or something like that?

I'll have to try it with Chat GPT. I tried this with Microsoft Copilot, and while it did spit out a nice mockup, it changed my original design significantly.

I have found that too, with some mockups made by AI. My solution is to overlay the original isolated product and then move that layer below the AI image. Then I mask the altered parts, revealing the original underneath in places that were changed. Sometimes color adjustments are needed on the original too, if the AI really changed the lighting.

Have you tried telling ChatGPT not to change your sample image?
