-Slopify plans the whole video as an edit list: which image or clip plays, for how long, how it moves, how it hands over to the next, and the effects on top. The renderer reads only that list, so the same project renders the same video every time. The video is always exactly as long as its narration plus the silence you set.

 ## What Slopify sets up for you
 
 - **The project.** Its title is your topic, with a capital first letter. Its format is 9:16.
-- **Library prompts.** The style's script and vertical-scene prompts are added to your Library (for General: **Starter · 60-second short** and **Starter · Vertical scene**). If you already have a prompt with that name and different text, the new one comes in as `<name> (2)`. Reusing them later changes nothing.
-- **A saved voice.** The style's suggested OpenAI voice is added to Settings → **Voices** (for General: **Starter narrator**), unless you already have one with that voice. When the computer's own voice narrates, it is saved there too, named `<voice> (computer voice)`, so Play offers it later.
+- **Prompts.** The style's script and vertical-scene prompts are added to your **Prompts** (for General: **Starter · 60-second short** and **Starter · Vertical scene**).
