- Written for
- ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok
- You'll need
- A clear photo to upload
- Status
- Tested 20 Oct 2026 in grok-imagine-image-2.0
- Test settings
- Reference photo: an AI-generated picture of a fictional couple (not real persons), made in Grok for this test. Uploaded with the default copy text unchanged. Aspect ratio 4:3. First result used. Resized to 1920x1440 and converted to WebP.
- Variability
- Faces, poses and small details vary between runs; always compare the result with your own photo.
Use the uploaded photo, or photos, as the reference for the two of us; both people shown have agreed to this edit. Preserve each person's recognisable face, natural skin tone, hairline and body proportions as closely as the model permits; check the result against the references. Scene: a pixel forest clearing at night with a small campfire, a tiny pixel tent beside it. Pose: sitting side by side on a log, one leaning on the other's shoulder. Clothing: simple adventurer outfits in the colours of the clothes in the photos. Light: warm flickering firelight in pixel steps, dark blue night around. Style: original 16-bit adventure game scene, crisp pixels, cosy mood, each character's hair and skin tone true to the photos. Format: horizontal 4:3 Avoid: copying any existing game character, adding people, skin lightening, blurry pixels, text, logos, watermarks.
