Upload guide: what photo works best

The photo that works best is a clear standing photo with your head at the top centre of the frame, looking down at the camera.

• One person only: Upload only yourself, with no second person and no group photo in the frame.
• Pose and framing: This template is framed from a low angle between your legs, looking up, with you standing over the camera, legs spread and framing the sides of the frame, your head at the top centre looking down.
• Eyes: Look down at the camera with your eyes open and your face unobstructed.
• Mouth: Keep your mouth area uncovered in the photo.
• Light and sharpness: Pick a sharp, recent, high-resolution image with even, bright light on your face. Avoid dark rooms, motion blur, screenshots with bars and buttons, pictures of a screen, and filters that change the shape of your face.
• Outfit: Your top and upper clothes from your photo are kept fully in place and covered; the pose and camera angle come from the reference image.
• Avoid: eye-level portraits, faces turned away, distant photos, dark or blurry photos.
