About this model

## Overview GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst, from OpenAI, is built to precisely edit and generate images with legible in-image text. It shares its controls with Flare, the faster sibling, and is the one to try when the exactness of an edit or a headline matters more than turnaround. It generates from a prompt, edits from reference images, and inpaints with a mask. ## What it does well - **Precise edits.** Describe the change against a reference image and the rest of the picture is kept. - **Typography.** Text quoted in the prompt is rendered legibly, across scripts. - **Mask inpainting.** A PNG mask with an alpha channel regenerates only the transparent areas. - **Output control.** Twelve size presets up to 3840 by 2160, an auto option, a transparent background setting, and PNG, WebP or JPEG output with a compression level. ## Prompting tips Start with the subject, then style and lighting, and quote exact text. For an edit, say what to change and what to leave alone. Keep quality on high for typography and use lower tiers for sketches. Keep compression at 100 when the lettering must stay crisp. If you mask, make sure the mask has the same dimensions as the reference image. ## Limits to know Edges must be multiples of 16, with aspect ratios between 1:3 and 3:1 and the longest edge at most 3840 pixels. Moderation can be set to auto or low. This model is billed on the real cost of each run, so the price depends on size and quality and is quoted on the Run button before you spend. ## FAQ ### Can it edit part of an image only? Yes. Supply a reference image and a PNG mask with an alpha channel; transparent areas are regenerated and everything opaque is preserved exactly. ### Which output format should I choose? PNG for crisp text and transparency, WebP for smaller files, JPEG for the widest compatibility.
