Upload guide: what photo works best

For the best result, use a close, first-person-style selfie with your face large in the frame, looking up into the camera.

• Pose and framing: Take the photo from slightly above, close in, with your face filling the upper frame — the way this template frames its first-person view.
• One person only: Upload only yourself, with no second person and no group photo in the frame.
• Eyes: Look up into the camera with your eyes open, no sunglasses and no hair across your eyes.
• Mouth: Keep your mouth uncovered, with your lips clearly visible and nothing — no hand, mask, or phone — in front of your mouth.
• Outfit: Clothes follow the template scene, not your photo. Do not expect the outfit in your photo to carry over into the result.
• Light and sharpness: 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.
• Avoid: distant full-body shots, back views, faces small in the frame, mouths covered by a hand or mask, dark or blurry photos.
