# Create images and group photos

Set up character images and Persona photos, distinguish chat images from text replies, and troubleshoot generation results.

Read this guide in: [English](https://book.rochat.ai/rochat_book_en/images-and-group-photos) · [繁體中文](https://book.rochat.ai/rochat_book_zh/images-and-group-photos) · [日本語](https://book.rochat.ai/rochat_book_ja/images-and-group-photos) · [Español](https://book.rochat.ai/rochat_book_es/images-and-group-photos) · [한국어](https://book.rochat.ai/rochat_book_kor/images-and-group-photos)

Image generation is separate from a text reply. Check the image controls, selected image model and displayed cost before generating. A chat model choice alone does not describe the image configuration.

## Prepare a character image

1. Open the character's appearance or image settings where you have editing permission.
2. Provide a clear visual description. Keep consistent traits such as adult age, hairstyle, clothing and overall style together.
3. Upload an image you have rights to use or use the available generation control.
4. Inspect the result before saving. Check the face, hands, clothing, crop and whether it matches the intended adult character.
5. Preview it in the actual card or chat layout, where a wide image may be cropped differently.

Example visual brief:

> Adult archive keeper with short dark hair, a green linen coat and a brass lantern; warm lamplight, calm expression, illustrated adventure style.

## Prepare a group photo

Where group-photo controls are available, set up the Persona's image or full-body appearance as requested, then enable the relevant option in the image settings. Give both participants distinct visual descriptions so the request does not merge their appearance.

A useful scene request is: “Mira and Rowan stand beside a chart table, both fully visible, with the brass lantern between them.” Review the image charge before confirming. Generated identity and composition can vary between attempts.

## If the image is wrong or unavailable

Check that the required Persona image is present, the image feature is enabled and the selected option supports the requested operation. Simplify the scene if there are too many people or conflicting descriptions. If generation fails, record the error and time before retrying; do not repeatedly spend points without changing the cause.
