Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions? We've got answers.
What will the final result look like?
Our tool converts your photo into a black-and-white sketch/line art style, preserving the main subject and structure of the original image while changing only the artistic style—without randomly altering facial features or composition. We currently support multiple styles to choose from, and we'll continue adding new ones. Each style will have its own dedicated showcase page with detailed comparison examples. After uploading your photo, you can freely switch between styles to preview which sketch effect best suits your needs before deciding to download.
What kind of photos work best for conversion?
Generally, photos with a clear subject, proper lighting, simple background, and minimal filters produce the best sketch results. For portraits, it helps when the face occupies a good portion of the frame with clear features, no severe backlighting or extremely dark environments, and an uncluttered background. Avoid photos with heavy beauty filters or exaggerated effects. If you're not satisfied with the result, try using a clearer original photo first, or switch to a different style on the editing page—this usually improves the outcome significantly.
Why do faces sometimes get distorted or hands look weird?
These issues typically result from current AI conversion limitations, not problems with your photo. Common causes include faces being too small in the frame, obscured by hair or hands, or extreme shooting angles that make it difficult for the system to accurately identify facial features. Additionally, if the original photo has heavy beauty filters, cartoon effects, or distortion applied, the AI works from that altered base to create the sketch, which can lead to unnatural-looking features and fingers. In these cases, try using photos with clearer, less obscured faces and lighter filters. If a particular style still produces odd results, switching to a different style usually helps significantly.
Will my uploaded photos be made public? How is privacy handled?
By default, creations generated by free users are displayed publicly to help others understand the actual results. If you're concerned about privacy, you can subscribe to a membership to use privacy mode—member-generated works will be handled according to privacy settings and won't be publicly displayed by default. Regardless of whether you're a free user or member, we will never use your personal photos for commercial purposes. Related images are used only within the scope of website services.
Is it free? What happens when I run out of credits?
We provide each user with a certain number of free generations, allowing you to fully experience the upload, edit, and download workflow. When your free credits run out, you can subscribe to a membership if you want continued stable service or access to more advanced features, choosing a plan that fits your usage frequency.
