# Img2Img FAQ

## What does image to image mean?

It means generating a new image from visual guidance. The upload can influence the subject, pose, structure, composition, or style while your prompt directs the change.

## Is img to img the same as img2img, photo to photo AI, or pic to pic AI?

Yes. Img to img, img2img, image-to-image, photo to photo AI, and pic to pic AI all describe the same source-guided AI image from image workflow: you upload a reference photo, guide the transformation with a text prompt, and generate a new variation while preserving the original subject and composition.

## How is an AI image generator from image different from an AI image editor?

An editor may target one area. An AI image generator from image input can reinterpret the full visual from source and prompt.

## Can I use the image to image AI generator free without signing in?

Generate one image daily with GPT Image 2 (Free), no sign up required. Sign in and check in for credits to keep creating. Other models and advanced options require VIP access.

## Which source images work best?

Use a clear source with one distinct subject. Simple backgrounds help preservation; matching composition helps larger changes.

## How do I keep the result close to my original?

Name what must stay recognizable, lower change strength, and compare every image to image result with the source.

## What can I upload to the upload image AI generator?

You can upload PNG, JPEG, or WebP files up to 10 MB and 8,192 pixels per side. Photos, product shots, sketches, and AI artwork work best when the subject is clear.

## How fast is generation, and what resolution will I get?

Generation time varies by model, queue, source image, and prompt, so the page shows live progress instead of a fixed promise. Output size depends on the model and your settings; Nano Banana 2 and GPT Image 2.5, for example, offer 1K, 2K, and 4K.

## Are outputs watermarked, and how long are files stored?

Img2Img does not add a visible watermark, although a model may retain provenance metadata or invisible markers. Source images and results are kept after task completion for 7 days for free users or 90 days for paid users, based on your status when generating. Later purchases or the end of paid access do not change this deadline. Download images you want to keep.

## Will the same prompt create the same result every time?

Generative output can vary. Reuse the source, prompt, model, and settings for related results, then save the version that matches your goal.

## Can I use generated images commercially?

Commercial use depends on your rights to the source, the selected model terms, and applicable law. Review logos, people, copyrighted material, and the final output before advertising, client work, merchandise, or paid distribution.

## How do credits work?

The studio shows the cost before you generate. Use check-in or purchased credits for GPT Image 2 (Free). A purchased credit balance or an active subscription unlocks VIP models and options; either credit type can then pay for them. Each generation uses one credit type.

## Can I try Img2Img before buying credits?

Yes. Generate one image daily with GPT Image 2 (Free), no sign up required. Sign in and check in for credits to keep creating. Free access resets at 00:00 UTC and is subject to availability.

## Do credits expire?

Purchased credits expire 365 days after purchase; check-in credits expire 30 days after each claim.

## Do I lose credits if a generation fails?

No. When a credit-based generation fails and the task is recorded as refunded, the reserved credits go back to your balance automatically. This returns credits, not money.

## Is this a subscription?

No. Every pack is a one-time payment with no subscription or automatic renewal. Buy another pack only when you need more credits.

## Can I get a refund?

Charges for credits you have already used are not refundable. We review other requests case by case, such as duplicate or mistaken charges; contact support with your account email and transaction ID.

## Can I use the images commercially?

Img2Img doesn't add a visible watermark. Whether you can use a result commercially depends on your rights to the source image, the selected model's terms, and applicable law, so review people, logos, and text before publishing.

## What happens to the photos I upload?

Your source image is stored privately and shared with the selected AI provider only through a short-lived link to run your edit. Source images and results are kept after task completion for 7 days for free users or 90 days for paid users, based on your status when generating. Later purchases or the end of paid access do not change this deadline. Download images you want to keep.
