What kind of photo should I upload?

Use one clear portrait with a visible, unobscured face. A centered image with recognizable facial details gives the tool the best reference.

Does it create a full-body anime character?

No. This tool is configured to generate exactly one floating anime head, without a neck, shoulders, torso, or body.

What format is the output?

The configured output is a square 1:1 image at 2K resolution.

Can I use any portrait as a reference?

Only upload images you have the right to use, and make sure your intended use follows the rules of the platform where you share the result.
