Questions about the styles
How many cartoon styles are there?
12 looks on 8 pages. Photo to Pixel Art, Photo to Sketch, Photo to Sticker and Pet Portrait from Photo each offer two looks you pick between before you start; the other pages have one.
Which cartoon style should I choose?
Choose by where the picture will go: a chibi, pixel art or a sticker for avatars and chats; a sketch, a caricature or a pet portrait to print or give; a coloring page for children; anime for couples and friends.
Can I make two styles from the same photo?
Yes. Upload the photo again on the other style’s page, or switch to the second look on a two-look page. Each picture is made and charged on its own.
Do all cartoon styles cost the same?
Yes, the price depends only on the size: 1K 1 credit, 2K 2 credits and 4K 3 credits. Photo to Sticker stops at 2K. One credit balance pays for every style.
Does a style look the same every time I use it?
Each style is a frozen recipe, so every photo gets the same instructions. Small details still vary from run to run, and an improved style is released as a new version instead of changing the old one.
Which styles keep the background of my photo?
Photo to Sketch and Anime Generator from Photo redraw the place you were in. Chibi Maker and Pet Portrait from Photo use a plain or soft background, pixel art sits on one flat color, and a sticker has none at all.
Can I combine two styles in one picture?
No. One picture is drawn in one style. If you want a pixel art sticker or a sketch with color, make each picture on its own page and combine them in an editor afterwards.
Can I ask for a new cartoon style?
Yes, send it through the Feedback page. New styles are chosen from what people search for, and each one gets its own page with its own examples when it is released.
