# moneycanbuy.fun — The Price Dealer

An original frog dealer for a board of paid dares. His angular wedge silhouette, swept crown, single gold tooth and dangling cream merchandise tag give him an identity beyond a familiar round meme frog. Half-lowered eyes and a small side smirk communicate “I already know your price.” The cream tag has clipped corners, a punched hole, a gold loop and a dark dollar sign; it stays distinct from the skin.

Ten different character directions were generated, then three were polished: the Price Dealer, the Toothpick Fixer and the Curled Auctioneer. The Price Dealer won for his silhouette, restrained attitude and recognizable tag. The final illustration was flattened to a limited palette and cleaned; all final campaign assets share this exact character. Lettering was drawn with original grid glyphs, without copying or embedding a commercial or brand font. The pixel variants were drawn directly on their respective grids, with size-specific eye, tooth and tag details, rather than downsampling the large image.

## Deliverables

Paths below are relative to this README. All images are PNG, with 8-bit RGB channels except the transparent mark, which is 8-bit RGBA with genuine alpha. The versioned filenames follow the assignment's required output contract.

## Palette and placement

Core colours: black #000000; outline #0F2A0C; frog green #5BB03E; paper cream #F2E8C9; gold #F5C84C; neon #3ECF7A. Two flat supporting greens describe the collar and crown planes. White text and cream slogan emphasis provide contrast.

The header reserves x=0–399, y=300–499 as completely empty black. Its copy and mascot stay within y=70–429, the central 1500 × 360 phone-safe band. The sheet shows a profile avatar overlapping the header's bottom-left corner; that overlay is not baked into the standalone header.

## Tools and prompt set

Artwork generation used the assignment's installed `mcp__image__generate_image` tool through the imagegen workflow, with three generation passes. PNG composition, palette cleanup, alpha-preserving resampling and pixel-grid drawing used Python/Pillow as production tooling. The delivered files need no software dependencies or network access to use.

Generation prompt set:

1. **Concept exploration:** ten genuinely different original frog dealers in a numbered five-by-two grid on black; angular crown, visor auctioneer, asymmetric tall toothpick fixer, sunglasses puff-throat, cheek-fin triangle, curled crest, square heavy brow, ridged profile, disc-headed dealer and wedge collar designs. Smug lowered eyes, cream/gold price tags, clean dark outlines; no existing cartoons or NFT imitation.
2. **Finalist polish:** three polished head-and-shoulder designs side by side: swept-crown gold-tooth dealer, tall toothpick dealer and curled-crest auctioneer. Cream clipped-corner tags with hole, string and dollar; bold limited-colour illustration on black. Generated captions were replaced with exact hand-set lettering.
3. **Final mark:** an original angular diamond-wedge frog, swept pointed crown, asymmetric half-lowered eyes, knowing side smirk, one square gold tooth, dark upturned jacket with neon trim, and a large separate cream paper dollar tag attached by a gold loop. Transparent background; no hands, scenery or additional text. The result was cleaned and composed into all final assets.

## Review and limitations

Every PNG was opened at full resolution and reviewed at reduced size. Pixel files were also inspected with nearest-neighbour magnification. The header was reviewed as a 375-pixel-wide crop of its central band, and the link preview at 600 × 315. Checks verified PNG integrity, dimensions, genuine transparent alpha, correspondence between the transparent and black marks, the empty header overlay region and circle-safe avatar placement. The sheet includes every visual deliverable.

Known visual limitation: at 16 × 16 the tag's dollar is a tiny three-pixel abstraction, not a fully legible typographic dollar. Its cream clipped silhouette, dark outline and attachment remain visible, along with the green face, lowered eyes and gold tooth. Use 32 or 64 pixels where a readable dollar sign is important. No other unmet visual requirement was identified in the local review. Visual quality remains a design judgment, not something the structural checks certify.
