Practical example

Task: Create a clear icon
What to prepare: Text

Task brief or prompt

A simple, flat side-view icon of a garden watering can: a wide body, a clear spout on the right and a large handle with an open gap. A single green fill, with no lettering, shadows or small decorations. Check readability when scaled down.

Expected result

A recognizable icon; select vector export separately if the service’s chosen mode supports it.

How to check the result

Check the silhouette at 24 and 48 pixels.
Open the exported file and check its actual format.
