Which photos suit it
Portraits have been tested with real runs on light skin, dark skin and a person wearing a headscarf; faces, skin tone, glasses and beards were kept, and the headscarf stayed on instead of being turned into a costume. Pets (a corgi) and scenery (a fjord) have been tested with real runs too.
Portraits use the Premium tier only; pets and scenery use Standard.
Known limits
Portraits get an ancient-style hairstyle (short hair can become an updo), and a small hand-held item such as a folding fan is sometimes added.
Scenery often ends up with a blank or fading patch in the bottom-right corner, and occasionally gains a building or two that is not in the photo.
FAQ
- How is it priced?
- Each run uses credits and produces 2 images to choose from; see the pricing page for the exact amount. Credits are returned if the run fails.
- What is the difference between the Standard and Premium tiers?
- In this style portraits use the Premium tier only (the Standard tier tends to draw medium-to-dark skin lighter), while pets and scenery use Standard. Premium costs more, and the credits for it are shown as soon as you choose a portrait.
- Is the result a real photo?
- No. The “Ancient Chinese Costume” result is generated by AI, and the page and the result are labelled “AI-generated”.
- Will headscarves or similar coverings be changed?
- For portraits the request is to keep headscarves, veils and similar coverings covering the same area: not removed, no hair shown, and no religious items added that the photo does not have. AI output cannot be guaranteed 100%; if you are not happy, generate again.
- Is my photo uploaded?
- Style transfer is done by AI on a server, so the photo is uploaded. The free basic tools such as crop and resize run locally in your browser.
