I keep hitting a wall with the Image Prompt feature. I want to use my uploaded image as a *reference* for style or composition, but it always seems to copy the subject matter too literally. It feels more like a "remix" than a "guided creation."

For example, I uploaded a simple sketch of a mountain landscape to try and generate a fantasy castle scene in that same loose sketch style. But instead, I just got variations of the exact mountain I drew. The prompt text seemed almost irrelevant.

What's the trick here? Is it about the prompt weight settings, or should I be describing what I *don't* want in the image? Looking for practical steps to make the image a subtle guide, not the boss of the output.
