Should I use a selfie or a full-body photo?

A clear face is the first priority for identity. A head-and-shoulders or waist-up image with visible eyes is a practical starting point. A full-body image can provide more clothing context, but a tiny face in a distant shot is less useful.

The generated scene includes sitting and standing. A portrait cannot guarantee accurate legs, hands or unseen clothing. If the source photo does not show an outfit clearly, the model must infer some details.

What should I avoid?

Choose an original image rather than an enlarged, blurry screenshot. Avoid sunglasses, masks, faces cut off at the edge, dramatic colored lighting and beauty filters that substantially change facial features.

  • One person per upload, not a crowded group photo.
  • No celebrity impersonation, minors or nonconsensual likeness use.
  • Do not upload a pet to this adult-portrait template; dog pictures in the studio are role placeholders, not cafe results.
  • Re-saving a small image at a larger size does not restore missing facial detail.

What happens when a photo is rejected?

Check the file format and size first. Then choose a clearer photo with one adult face and wait for the new check to finish. Automated screening can make mistakes; repeatedly submitting the same rejected file is unlikely to help.

Only upload images you have permission to use. Photo checks do not prove ownership or consent, and approval is not a guarantee that a generated face will be an exact match.
