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.

File limits
- Accepted formats: JPG, PNG, WebP.
- Up to 10 MB per photo.
- Each side between 300 and 6000 pixels.
- Width divided by height must fall between 0.4 and 2.5.
- One photo is enough, since the template has a single role.
What gives the best result
- Just one subject, whether pet, adult, toy or drawing.
- A big face turned roughly toward the lens.
- Coat and markings in view, so colours carry over.
- An uncluttered background, which helps the model lock on.
What to skip
- Babies, kids and anyone below 18.
- Group pictures, or two pets in one frame.
- Dark glasses, face masks or heavy beauty filters.
- Celebrities, well-known cartoon or game characters, and frames grabbed from another person's clip.

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.
