Put the words in quotes, spell them exactly, and name the style (gold script, red serif, handwritten). Check every take before you send it: a letter can come out wrong, and the next take usually fixes it. For a long message, keep the card for the picture and write the rest inside, or in the email. ## Price From 10 credits a picture, the same at every format.

Yes: put the words in quotes in the prompt and say where and how they go (« "Merry Christmas from the Okafors" in gold script at the bottom »). Short lines come out cleanest; check the spelling on each take. ### Can I make a Christmas card from my own photo? Yes: yourself, or someone who agreed to it. Attach the photo as a reference and the face stays. Real, identifiable people need their consent, and photos of minors are never allowed, so cards with children are out. ### What format for a printed Christmas card? Pick 3:4 for a portrait card or 4:3 for a landscape one: they fit the common 5×7 inch and A6 cards with a little trimming. For a phone, 9:16 for a Story or 1:1 for a message. Every format costs the same. ### Can I make a Christmas card of my pet? Yes: attach a clear photo of your dog or cat, describe the scene and the greeting, and ask the engine to keep its fur colors and markings. ### Can the card move? Press Animate under the picture: it becomes the first frame of a short clip, snow falling, lights twinkling. From 50 credits for five seconds on eroq Motion One (480p). ### Is the AI Christmas card generator free? New accounts get 40 free credits, enough for 4 pictures, no card needed.
