Bicep Heart photo requirements
The Classic Pose template uses one photo. The reference clip supplies the grip, the flex and the heart; your upload supplies the person. Send a waist-up portrait with the face and both arms visible, in even light, and the render has what it needs.

Face the camera. The template assumes a front-facing starting pose, and a side profile forces the model to rebuild the face — rebuilding is where detail is lost.
Keep both arms in the frame. The heart is made with a hand on a bicep, so a tight headshot leaves the model guessing at the rest of the body. A crop that cuts the elbows is the most common reason the heart falls apart.
Short sleeves beat long sleeves because the muscle and the hand need a clear edge. One person only: a second face is ignored, and every face gets smaller for it.
Bicep Heart photo lighting
Window light against a plain wall is ideal. Dark or cluttered backgrounds can leak artifacts into the edges of your hair. A phone photo in a bright room usually beats a studio shot with a heavy filter.
JPG, PNG and WebP are supported up to 10 MB. Images must be at least 256 pixels on each side, and extreme crops are rejected before upload.
Bicep Heart photo mistakes to avoid
Skip sunglasses, masks, a hand covering the face, and photos where the head is cropped. Skip tiny figures in a wide group shot — the face needs enough pixels to survive the render.
Do not upload celebrities, public figures, or anyone who has not agreed to appear. Use your own photo or one you have permission to use.
A photo that already shows the finished heart is the wrong upload. The template starts from a standing portrait; a finished-heart photo gives the model nothing to animate.
What photo does the Bicep Heart generator need?
One waist-up portrait with the face and both arms visible, front-facing, in even light. Short sleeves help, and a plain background is better than a busy one. One adult who agreed to appear.
What file types and size can I upload to Bicep Heart?
JPG, PNG or WebP up to 10 MB, with at least 256 pixels on each side. The upload form accepts those three types and rejects other files before sending them.
Can I upload a Bicep Heart photo that already shows the heart?
Not as the input. The template starts from a standing portrait and animates the pose itself. A finished-heart photo is a souvenir, not an upload.
Can I upload a group photo to Bicep Heart?
A group photo usually makes the result worse. The model has one slot for the person in the pose, and extra faces are ignored. Crop to one adult, waist-up, with both arms in frame.
Can I upload a photo of someone else to Bicep Heart?
Only with their consent. Use your own photo or one you are authorised to use. Photos of celebrities and public figures are rejected.
Why was my Bicep Heart photo rejected?
Usually the elbows are cropped, there is more than one face, the file is under 256 pixels on a side, or it is not a JPG, PNG or WebP. Fix the input before spending a credit.
