Upload guide: what photo works best

Pick a close kneeling photo, looking up at the camera.

• 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: Use a first-person view from a seated person looking down past a desk, kneeling in front, the way this template frames its office view.
• Eyes and gaze: Look up at the camera with your eyes open, no sunglasses and no hair across your eyes.
• Just you: Upload only yourself, with no second person and no group photo in the frame.
• Mouth: Keep your mouth 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: standing photos, distant full-body shots, mouths covered, dark or blurry photos.
