What kind of picture suits a fridge cake heist video?

Updated:

Short answer

Choose one crisp, evenly lit photo of a single pet or adult, with the face large and easy to read, since the shelf camera shows the head and the paws or hands up close. Save as JPG, PNG or WebP under 10 MB, 300 to 6000 pixels per side. Crowded shots and filtered faces fare worst.

Questions people ask

Can my pet be lying down in the photo?

Sure, as long as the face is sharp. Sitting up and looking into the lens works best.

Does the background in my photo matter?

Barely. The fridge is generated, so any clear picture will do.

The upload box turned my photo down. Why?

A line under the box says what's wrong: size, format or shape. Correct that and retry. Rejected photos cost nothing.
