Image restrictions

Pixel Studio is working on the ability to create human images, along with the ability to edit existing images with people. Sometimes, Pixel Studio might misinterpret your prompt, thinking you want an image that includes a person, and won’t be able to create it. If that happens, reword the prompt to be more specific about the content you want to see, then try creating the image again.
Additionally, you will not be able to generate any images that violate Google’s Generative AI Prohibited Use Policy. Note that some images may be unintentionally blocked as we fine-tune our filters.
