WUUUF — made individually
The photo guide
Four good photos save days of messages and give the 3D artist one coherent view of your pet. You do not need a professional camera — you need consistency.
The one rule that matters most
Place your pet on a flat, even surface and keep them in one calm pose. Move around the pet to take each angle; do not ask the pet to turn repeatedly.
The four required angles
- Front: face, chest and both front paws visible.
- Left side: full outline from nose to tail.
- Right side: the opposite outline, at the same height.
- Back: back, tail and rear paws visible.
Make every photo usable
- Show the whole body, including ears, paws and tail.
- Use daylight or a bright room without harsh backlight.
- Keep the camera approximately level with the centre of the body.
- Avoid portrait-mode blur, filters, screenshots and social-media downloads.
- Use the original image file whenever possible.
What counts as a bad photo?
A photo is unsuitable when it is too small, visibly blurred, very dark, overexposed, cuts off body parts or shows a different pose that changes the limb position. The upload tool identifies the main technical problems immediately and tells you which image to replace.
Helpful optional photos
Close-ups of unusual ears, a curled tail, long coat texture, distinctive markings or a memorial detail can help the artist understand the pet better. Optional images never replace the four core angles.
