Photo guide
Choose a selfie the AI can recognize.
The best source photo is simple: one adult, a clearly visible face, natural light, and no heavy filter. Better input gives your five illustrated cards a stronger chance of looking like you.

Six checks before uploading
01
Face the camera
Use a front-facing or slightly turned portrait where both eyes, your nose, and the outline of your face are visible.
02
Choose soft, even light
Window light or outdoor shade works well. Avoid a bright window behind you, deep shadows, and colored party lighting.
03
Keep your face large in the frame
A head-and-shoulders selfie gives the generator more useful facial detail than a distant full-body photograph.
04
Skip filters and face coverings
Beauty filters, sunglasses, hats over the eyes, masks, and heavy motion blur can hide the features the image model needs.
05
Use one adult
Choose a photo containing only the consenting adult who should appear in the finished images. Do not upload a minor or another person without permission.
06
Use the original photo when possible
A sharp phone-camera image is better than a screenshot of a compressed social-media post. JPEG, PNG, and WebP are accepted.
