Make it in TelegramKit colors by era
Early kits were made from wool and dyed with limited pigments, so the reds were deeper and the whites more cream than modern ones. Naming the year helps the bot pick correct tones. A change of shade between the top row and the front row is natural when a few players wear other socks, so mention exceptions, and say so if the club switched to a spare strip.
Details worth fixing
Badges on the chest, club crests on the banner and numbers on the shirts are small and easily guessed wrong. The bot leaves illegible emblems in a neutral tone rather than inventing a false crest. After the pass, you can add the right emblem in an editor if you know it. Sharing the finished photo with a supporters' group often brings the missing names.
Tips
- Search the club's old kit history for the year.
- Say which player is the goalkeeper.
- Name the trophy material, such as silver.
- Ask for faded wool tones for authenticity.
