Frequently asked questions

Which photos work best?

Clear, well-lit photos with a simple background. Portraits and pets look great as pencil sketches.

Is this made with AI?

No. It uses classic image filters that run instantly in your browser, so your photo is never uploaded.

Can I print the sketch?

Yes. It's saved at up to 2000 px on the long side, good for A5–A4 prints.

Is it free?

Yes, completely free with no watermark.
