Best DALL-E Prompts

30 free prompts · Updated April 2026

DALL-E lives inside ChatGPT now, which changes how you prompt it: you can write full descriptive sentences instead of comma-separated keyword strings. The templates below use that to spell out subject, mood, lighting, and layout precisely — the difference between a generic render and an image you can actually ship.

Copy any template, replace the [variables] with your own subject or brand details, and paste it into ChatGPT. Most of these prompts also translate directly to Midjourney or Stable Diffusion if that's your generator of choice.
