Clearer Help When an Image Cannot Be Generated

Cover-up creation now explains unsupported image failures more clearly and points users toward a practical next step.

A clearer explanation

An image request can fail for several reasons. The uploaded format may not be supported, the image may be damaged, or the content may not be suitable for processing. These situations previously looked too similar from the result screen.

Cover-up creation now shows a clearer, situation-specific explanation. It separates problems with the photo from a short-lived generation issue, so users have a better idea of what to change before trying again.

Practical recovery steps

The updated guidance asks for a clear JPEG, PNG, or WEBP photo and keeps the next action close to the result. It also avoids suggesting that repeated retries will fix an image that cannot be processed.

  • Use an evenly lit photo with the full existing tattoo visible.
  • Avoid screenshots with heavy overlays, borders, or unreadable compression.
  • Choose a supported image format before uploading again.

What stays the same

The AI cover-up result remains a planning preview, not a guaranteed final tattoo design. A professional tattoo artist still needs to evaluate the existing ink, skin, placement, and practical coverage options.
