Pick a text-overlay direction5 directions, same base image, same offer copy

Two of your six approved concepts (cid 05 and cid 11) are text_overlay_static format. Image generation is gated until you greenlight a treatment. The same direction will be used for both, then for any future text-overlay concepts in the agentic loop. Pick by ID (A–E) and reply.

Style A

Lower-third bar

Solid charcoal band, white headline, dependable. Reads cleanly even at IG-feed thumbnail size. The "infomercial / real-estate listing" pattern — high comprehension, low premium signal.

Style B

Editorial center-stack

Subtle gradient, large serif price as the hero, sub-CTA on a hairline rule. Premium-leaning without going luxury. The kitchen photo still does most of the work; type doesn't fight the image.

Style C

Corner price badge

Compact dark badge in the upper-right, image carries weight, soft gradient at bottom for the secondary CTA. DTC product-listing feel — modern, the photo is the star, price is a sticker.

Style D

Vertical side bar

Charcoal sidebar with a warm-tan accent rule, image on left, type stacked vertically. Magazine / product-page feel. Holds more copy without crowding the photo. Strong on portrait crops if we ever go 9:16.

Style E

Split frame 75 / 25

Image fills the top three-quarters, solid charcoal block underneath holds the offer in serif type. Newspaper-clip feel. Highest readability of the five at small thumbnail sizes. Looks deliberate and editorial.

This is the size your audience actually scans. The smaller they read at, the harder readability is to recover.

How to pick

Reply with the style letter (e.g. A) and any tweaks. The chosen style becomes the spec for both cid 05 ("neighbors found 12 months at 0%") and cid 11 ("what does $15,999 actually get you"). Once committed, image generation can run with both the kitchen background and the overlay — same pipeline as single_image, plus a final compositing step.

If none feel right, suggest tweaks (e.g. "B but with the bar from A," or "D in white-on-black instead of accent rule") and I'll iterate.
