- Does it restyle the whole photo or just part of it?
- Both. By default one click restyles the entire photo. If you want only part of it changed — one person, the sky, a building — choose 'Style only part of it' and brush that region; everything outside your selection stays exactly the same.
- What styles work best?
- The 10 built-in styles (Studio Ghibli, watercolor, oil painting, cyberpunk neon, vaporwave, vintage film, noir, comic ink, pencil sketch, 1970s sci-fi) are tuned prompts with example previews — start there. For custom styles, name the medium (oil, watercolor, ink), era (1980s, art nouveau), and palette (muted earth tones, neon); vague words like "cool" produce inconsistent results.
- Will the subject stay recognizable?
- Yes. Our AI uses your photo as a structural reference — the underlying pose, shape, and composition are preserved while the visual style changes. A face stays the same face, an object stays the same object — they just look like they were drawn or painted instead of photographed.
- How is this different from Generative Fill or Replace Anything?
- Generative Fill replaces the brushed content entirely with whatever you describe. Selective Style Transfer keeps the underlying subject and only changes how it's rendered. If you want a dog to become a cat, use Replace Anything. If you want the dog to look like a watercolor painting of itself, use this.
- Does it leave watermarks or reduce resolution?
- No watermark on the output. Full-resolution PNG at the same dimensions as your input.
