Upload guide: what photo works best

Pick a clear front-facing photo with your face large in the centre of the frame, mouth open.

• Light and quality: Choose a recent photo in bright, even light, in high resolution, with your face in sharp focus. Skip screenshots with black bars or app buttons, photos of another screen, and heavy filters that reshape your face.
• Framing: This template is framed from the front and above, on all fours, with your face in the centre facing the camera. Pick a photo with your face large and centred.
• Eyes and gaze: Look at the camera with your eyes open and your face unobstructed.
• Just you: Upload only yourself, with no second person and no group photo in the frame.
• Mouth: Keep your mouth open and uncovered, with nothing in front of your lips.
• Outfit: Clothes follow the template scene, not your photo. Do not expect the outfit in your photo to carry over into the result.
• Do not use: back views, faces turned away, mouths covered, distant photos, dark or blurry photos.
