GPT Image 2.6 vs Ideogram 4: Which One Should You Use
The site has 62 and 18 reproducible cases for each, respectively. Below, we compare strengths, prompt writing, and final results side by side.
The Bottom Line
GPT Image 2.6 is better for Looping animations and reaction stickers; Ideogram 4 is better for Poster and headline typography. Running the same idea through both is usually worth it — they "listen" differently, so the prompt has to be adjusted to match.
Strengths & Prompt-Writing Comparison
GPT Image 2.6
For animations, break the motion into individual frames, state what stays still, and ask for the last frame to lead back to the first. For a series, start with a clean base image that has one checkable detail, then list what must not change. Use low complexity for small edits and high complexity for dense text and intricate layouts.
Ideogram 4
Lock the wording in quotes, then describe the type's character (sans, handwritten, serif) and the hierarchy of the layout. Don't push more than three blocks of text into one image — they start crowding each other.
