All pictures with a main subject that clearly stands out in the foreground are supported.

Our goal is to provide top-notch AI Avatars for a wide variety of pictures, situations, styles. To achieve the best outcome, here are some cool tips for the next photo session that can be shared with your end users. If you're facing any issues, give us a shout at devsupport@picsart.io.

General tips

Contrast: Snaps taken in great lighting conditions with a strong contrast between the subject and the background will give awesome results.
Alignment: Make sure to upload pictures with the right orientation. The best outcome is obtained when the picture aligns with gravity (meaning the ground is at the bottom of the image).
Plain backgrounds preferred: Blurry and single-colored backgrounds are easier to process compared to sharp backgrounds packed with lots of details.
Clear foreground: If the face is blurry, it might not be removed. Even if only the edges are blurry, they'll remain blurry in the cutout, which may or may not be an issue.

Tips for photos

Number of people: It is important images don't include more than one person.
Variety of facial expressions
Objects: Ideally, No additional objects should be visible in the photo.
Avoid extreme angles: Capture the selfie from a natural perspective, approximately at eye level.
No sunglasses
No children
No pets
No nudity
