Golden-Ratio Frames That Convert (Free Templates)

A compact set of φ-based prompt templates for cleaner visuals, faster decisions, and better clicks—free to copy.

Why φ frames convert

• Visual balance without fuss. The golden ratio (φ ≈ 1.618) gives you a reliable structure so the eye lands where you want.
• Decision speed. With one hero element and a clearly placed CTA chip, a donor or reader can act in seconds.
• Repeatable look. A φ frame + duotone palette = consistent brand feel across a campaign.

---

The Rules (tiny, strict, effective)

• One idea per frame. If you need two ideas, make two frames.
• 3–5 props max. Hero icon, CTA chip, supporting glyphs—stop there.
• Anchors at 3/5 and 5/8. Place the hero and CTA along these lines.
• Readable CTA. 3–4 words, high contrast, rounded chip, sentence case.
• Palette discipline. Base = graphite/ink; accents = soft gold, sea-teal.

Platform: Artistly
Seed: genesisSeed=1112

1) Hero + Chip (Baseline Conversion)

Subject: Single hero icon with one bold CTA chip at lower-right anchor

2) Duo Icons (Before → After)

Subject: Two simple glyphs left→right (need → outcome) with CTA chip at 5/8 line

---

Export Notes (keep it crisp)

• SVG (primary): Outline fonts; keep strokes ≥ 1.2px; avoid heavy gradients.
• PNG (2048×2048): Transparent background for overlays; maintain inside padding ≈ 1/φ.
• Accessibility: Chip text contrast ≥ 4.5:1; pair icons with labels.

---

Quick Workflow (90-second loop)

1. Duplicate a template.
2. Swap the hero icon and update the CTA chip.
3. Check anchors: hero at 3/5 line, chip near 5/8.
4. Export SVG + PNG.
5. Post with alt text and a one-line caption.

---

Troubleshooting (fast fixes)

• Looks crowded? Drop one prop.
• CTA blends in? Increase chip stroke or switch accent (gold ↔ teal).
• Off-balance? Nudge elements onto the 3/5 and 5/8 lines.
• Soft preview on social? Add a 1px inside stroke to key shapes.

Fundraising Visuals That Actually Convert (Free Starter Set)

Five polished prompts for growth, need, and hope—plus clean SVG/PNG export notes so your images look crisp everywhere.

Why these prompts work

Donors decide fast. A clear visual + one focused CTA beats a busy collage. These prompts use:

• Golden-ratio layout (φ): natural balance for high scanability.
• Clean duotone: recognizable brand feel without distraction.
• 3–5 props max: a single idea per frame.
• Readable CTA chip: the next action is obvious.

Use them as-is in Artistly, then adjust text and palette to your brand.

Mood: quiet need, respect
Must-have CTA: chip: “$7 = today’s lunch”

---

3) Helping Hands (Immediate Help)

---

Text Overlays (keep it simple)

• Primary line: 3–5 words max (“Stand with Elissa”, “Groceries Today”, “Bus Pass Fund”).
• Secondary line: 1 short benefit or total (“$7 covers lunch”).
• CTA chip: action + micro-amount (“Give $5”, “Share now”).
  Use a high-contrast chip with rounded corners; avoid more than two chip colors in one frame.

---

Export Notes (SVG/PNG that stay crisp)

SVG (primary):

• Use solid fills + strokes; avoid complex gradients for small social previews.
• Ensure text is outlined (paths) or use a web-safe font; keep stroke width at or above 1.2px.

PNG (secondary 2048×2048):

• Export with transparent background when used over your site’s theme; otherwise, ink/graphite background is fine.
• Keep the safe margin ≈ 1/φ of canvas so captions and chips don’t clip in social crops.
• If your platform recompresses aggressively, add a subtle 1px inside stroke on key shapes for edge integrity.

Accessibility:

• Maintain contrast ratio ≥ 4.5:1 for text on chips.
• Don’t rely on color alone—pair icons with labels (e.g., heart + “Give”).
• Provide alt text (sample below).

---

Alt Text Templates (swap nouns + amounts)

• “Hands cupping a small seedling on a golden-ratio grid with a ‘$10 = 3 seedlings’ callout.”
• “Heart above a small bowl on a tidy desk line, with the caption ‘$7 covers lunch.’”
• “Two hands passing an envelope with a heart seal; CTA chip reads ‘$20 = transport.’”

---

Brand & Palette Tips

Keep your accent color constant across the set (e.g., soft gold for CTAs). Choose one supporting color (sea-teal) for icons, and let graphite/ink carry the base UI lines. Consistency beats novelty in fundraising.

What I’m Making, Why It Matters, and What Ships First

A friendly launch note: what’s live now, what’s next (no Handheld Tutorials yet), and how your purchase funds the work.

“Rebuilding in public, one quiet, useful tool at a time.”
— Rev. Brian Scott O’keefe (randomblink)

Why a shop—and why now

I’m making simple, useful, good-looking things you can actually use: prints, stickers/magnets, vector icon sets, prompt packs, and tiny zines. Sales keep the lights on while I rebuild LifeOS, write, and recover. I’ve had multiple strokes; my brain and pace are different now. The work is slower, but it’s honest. Buying something here directly funds time for code, writing, and community help.

A portion of revenue also supports these pages: Stand with Joy, Stand with Elissa, Stand with Cath—plus Stand with randomblink so I can keep making and shipping.

No Handheld Tutorials in the cart yet. Those launch after the site is fully up and the flows are rock solid.

---

What’s live today (you can buy these)

• AI Quote Magnets (small-batch) — clean typography, daily nudge energy.
• Sticker 3-packs — minimal, high-contrast, durable.
• Vector Icon Mini-Set (SVG) — crisp, grid-aligned icons for makers.
• Print-ready Art (A4 / Letter PDFs) — flat-vector pieces I design for “calm walls.”

Shipping is simple: U.S. first, then I add international as we scale. Digital items are instant.

What ships next — you vote

I keep a tight queue. You decide what jumps the line.

1. Prompt Pack v1 (Creator Ops): checklists + prompts for posting, listing, and repurposing.
2. “Quiet Brain” Zine: one-sitting read on memory tools after stroke (timers, checklists, repeats).
3. Icon Set Pro (64 glyphs): UI/brand icons with a golden-ratio grid and variants.
4. Desk Prints (φ series): calming duotone designs sized for standard frames.
5. MAGEWEAR pilot drop: one tee + one hoodie, minimal, maker-grade.

How your purchase funds the work

• Time on LifeOS (token-based REST, sign-in fixes, cleaner file view).
• Writing: dev logs, recovery notes, and practical guides.
• Community: I test tools you suggest and fold the best ideas back into the builds.
• Family & Fundraisers: a set percentage routes to the three “Stand with” pages above.

I’ll post a simple monthly ledger: revenue, costs, what shipped, what’s next.

---

What’s not in the cart (yet)

• Handheld Tutorials — waiting until the site is fully stable. You’ll get versioned, step-by-step “hold-my-hand” guides, but only when the UX is ready.

How to follow along

• Subscribe to the blog for dev logs and shop drops.
• Comment with one tool you want me to test—I’ll try it for a week.
• Vote on what ships next (it genuinely changes my roadmap).

Thank you

If you buy something, you’re literally buying time for me to build, write, and show my homework in public. That matters—to me, to my family, and to the people we’re standing with.

Receipts, Needs, Next Steps

This week is about clarity. I’m rebuilding in public and focusing on helping three families facing food and housing insecurity. Below you’ll find what came in, what went out (with receipts), and what’s still needed. If you’ve ever wondered whether small donations matter—this is proof that they do. I’m also mapping the next steps so you can see how your support converts into groceries, rent help, and breathing room. Thank you for sharing, donating, or even just reading. It all moves the needle. This is part of my stroke recovery fundraising work—slow, honest progress.
