Photo requirements for Split Face Trend

• Face the camera straight on, head level, in even light. Two similar photos join best: about the same distance, both looking ahead.
• Sharp and close, from the shoulders up. A passport-style photo is ideal.
• No sunglasses, hats or hair over the eyes, so the eyes line up across the middle.
• Color or old photos are fine. The result is black and white anyway. Photograph an old print flat, with no glare.
• One person per photo. Crop a group photo first.

• The face looks blended, like a new person — Run it again with clearer photos. The prompt asks for two halves, never an average face.
