| Before | After | |---|---| | A low‑resolution JPG of Oxi with a flat blue background, Ariadna barely visible, heavy compression artifacts. | A 300 dpi, 2400 × 1800 px image. Oxi’s neon circuitry glows with a subtle bloom, Ariadna’s veil shimmers with a soft amber gradient, and a faint light‑trail connects them. The background is a deep star‑field with a hint of aurora, giving depth without distracting. | | No branding, no hierarchy. | ShowStars logo top‑left, tagline “Electric Pulse meets Moon Whisper” bottom‑center, and a clear visual hierarchy that draws the eye from Oxi → connecting trail → Ariadna. | showstars oxi and ariadnajpg better
