Sticker Generation
Generate custom stickers and illustrations from a text prompt, dropped directly onto your canvas as image layers.
Not every graphic element needs to come from a stock library or a generated layout. Sticker generation lets you describe a specific illustration or icon and have Lega generate it on demand, dropped onto your canvas as a real image layer.
What it's for
Stickers fill the gap between "generate a whole layout" and "upload my own asset." Say you're building a poster and the layout is right but it needs a small illustrated element — a coffee cup, a lightning bolt, a mascot in a specific pose — that doesn't exist in any asset library and isn't worth the layout AI's full attention. That's a sticker generation: a focused prompt, a single generated graphic, placed where you need it.
Stickers work well for:
- Social posts that need a distinctive illustrated accent rather than a stock icon.
- Filling in a placeholder element from a generated layout with something more specific.
- Building a small set of consistent icons or mascots across a campaign by reusing similar prompts.
How it works
You describe the subject in a text prompt — as specific as you want, down to style ("flat vector," "hand-drawn," "3D render") and color. Lega generates the image and places it as a standard image layer on your canvas, positioned wherever you triggered the generation.
While a sticker is generating, it sits on the canvas as a placeholder — a marked empty layer — until the asset resolves, so you can keep working around it instead of waiting on the generation to continue editing. Once generated, it behaves like any other image layer: you can resize it, reposition it, recolor via effects where supported, or delete and regenerate with a different prompt if the result isn't right.
Tips for better sticker prompts
- Name the style explicitly. "Flat vector coffee cup icon" and "watercolor coffee cup illustration" produce meaningfully different results from the same subject.
- Keep the subject singular and specific. One clear object reads better as a sticker than a busy scene — save full scenes for layout generation.
- Iterate cheaply. If a sticker isn't quite right, regenerating with a refined prompt is usually faster than trying to manually edit the result.
Stickers vs. importing your own assets
If you already have a logo, photo, or custom graphic, upload it directly rather than generating a substitute — see Importing Existing Designs for bringing in your own assets or reference material. Sticker generation is for cases where the asset doesn't exist yet and describing it is faster than sourcing it.
