How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Choose a clear photo of your face, preferably front-facing with good lighting. Selfies, headshots, or passport-style photos work perfectly. The AI needs to see your facial features clearly to create an accurate avatar.

    Expect: Simple cartoon avatar: 60 seconds. Detailed artistic style: 2-3 minutes and may need style refinements.

  2. Describe your avatar style

    THIS IS THE KEY STEP. Type exactly what avatar style you want: 'create anime avatar', 'make cartoon version of me', 'create professional business avatar', or 'turn into cyberpunk character'. Be specific about the artistic style, colors, or theme. No need to mark your face - the AI recognizes it automatically.

    Tip: Mention specific styles like 'Disney cartoon', 'manga anime', 'pixel art', or 'oil painting style' for more accurate results

  3. Review your custom avatar

    Check how your avatar captures your likeness while applying the chosen style. The AI maintains your recognizable features while transforming the artistic presentation. Zoom in to see stylistic details.

  4. Refine details if needed

    OPTIONAL. If you want to adjust specific features like hair style, clothing, or facial details, add those specifications to your prompt and regenerate. Most avatars capture your likeness perfectly on the first try.

    Tip: Add specific details like 'with blue hair', 'wearing glasses', or 'smiling expression' for customization
