It cannot add a subject or recover lost detail. ## How to use it 1. Drop a picture onto the card's **Image** slot, from the board or your computer. 2. Set **Palette** on the card. 3. Pick a mode on the card: **General**, **Portrait**, **Object**. 4. Pick a model in the pill at the top of the card, or keep **GPT Image 2.5**. 5. Press **Run**. ## On the card | Control | What it does | Choices | | - | - | - | | Image | The picture the tool works from.

Models in this mode: **GPT Image 2.5**. ### Portrait For pictures of people: the palette takes the clothes, the hair and the set. Models in this mode: **Grok Imagine 2.0**, **Bria Fibo Edit 1.5**. ### Object For one object or product on a backdrop: the object and its backdrop take the palette, its material, light and shadow stay. Models in this mode: **FLUX.2 Pro**. ## Models The pill at the top of the card picks the model. **GPT Image 2.5** is the one a new card starts on. | Model | Good for | | - | - | | [GPT Image 2.5](#gpt-image-25) | General recolours: every surface of any picture repainted to the exact palette while faces, tattoos, text and the framing stay as they were. | | [Grok Imagine 2.0](#grok-imagine-20) | Portraits where the people must stay who they are: the palette takes the clothes, hair and set, faces keep their detail. | | [Bria Fibo Edit 1.5](#bria-fibo-edit-15) | Portraits where the people may be drawn again: a fresh, natural-looking take on the palette, cheaper than Grok. | | [FLUX.2 Pro](#flux2-pro) | A single object or product on a backdrop: the object and backdrop take the palette's exact colours while glass, chrome, ceramic and the ground shadow stay true. | ### GPT Image 2.5 **Not the one for:** It repaints skin with everything else, so it is the wrong pick when people should keep a natural skin tone; that is Portrait.

Higher holds finer detail, costs more and takes longer. | Low, Medium, High, Very High, Max | | Resolution | Output size. 2K and 4K cost more. | 1K, 2K, 4K | ### Grok Imagine 2.0 **Not the one for:** Less of the picture lands exactly on the colours than in General, and a full-length shot with small figures is General's job.

The same seed and settings give the same result every time; change it for a fresh variation, or leave it at -1 for a new random one. | -1 to 999999 | ### FLUX.2 Pro **Not the one for:** Built for one object; a busy scene or a crowd of people belongs to General or Portrait.
