Adding Face References
Faces & ObjectsUpload your face photos so the AI can generate thumbnails featuring you consistently.
Face references let THUMBEAST generate thumbnails that feature your actual face. Upload photos of yourself, and the AI will maintain your facial features — bone structure, jawline, nose shape, eye shape — across unlimited scenarios.
Setting up face references
- Open the Person Manager from the generation controls
- Create a new Person and give them a name (e.g., "Me", "John")
- Upload face photos — different angles, expressions, and lighting work best
- You can upload up to 8 photos per person
- Select the person when generating to include their face
Tips for best results
- Use clear, well-lit photos where your face is fully visible
- Include a variety of angles (front, 3/4 view, slight side angles)
- Different expressions help the AI understand your face better
- Avoid heavy filters or sunglasses
- More photos = better face consistency (4-8 photos recommended)
Info
Face identity is treated as the highest priority during generation. The AI will prioritize matching your facial structure over expression accuracy.
