Learn how to build an advanced ComfyUI workflow from scratch that captures a webcam image, removes the background, applies text overlays, blends backgrounds, and outputs a fully composited AI postcard or thumbnail. In this video, I’ll walk you through every node and decision in the process, including ControlNet integration, custom text overlays, color matching, and final compositing. This is perfect for anyone making YouTube thumbnails or creative AI images using ComfyUI. Download my full workflow for free and adapt it for your own use!
