The prompts are free to copy. Generating the picture needs ChatGPT's image tool, usually free with limits and more generous on a paid plan.
Yes. Most prompts ask for a 4:5 portrait that crops cleanly for Instagram, a dating app, or a print. Generate at the ratio you will actually use rather than cropping a mismatch later.
