## What is it good for?

A calm, low-detail image that sits behind icons and text without competing with them.

## How do I adjust it?

- Change the number of ridges to control depth: three feels open, five feels layered.
- Name the time of day instead of listing colours; the sky gradient follows it.
- To change the subject or colours, start from the [ink scroll template](https://promptseen.dev/en/templates/ink-scroll/).
