    Tap a colour, choose any other with the picker, or pick Transparent for a cut-out PNG. The change is instant.

  3. 03

    Download it

    Colours download as a JPG, which every form accepts. Transparent downloads as a PNG.

Questions people ask

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The person is found by a model that runs in your browser, and the photo never leaves your device.

Can I choose a different shade of red?

Yes. Use the colour picker below the colour choices and pick or type the exact shade the form asks for.

Does red work with dark hair?

Yes. Dark hair stands out well against red. Fine flyaway hairs are blended into the new colour so the outline stays natural.
