# Multiple Uploads for GenAI Effects


# What is Multiple Uploads?
**Photo Upload** now comes in two types: 
* `Single Upload` (renamed original behavior) - only accept one uploaded photo.
* `Multiple Uploads` - let your buyers upload more than one photo and have a GenAI effect combine them into one final image — for example, merging photos of the same person at different ages, or combining photos of several family members into one design.

| A GenAI effect is currently required for Multiple Uploads to combine all uploaded photos into one output image. Support for multiple separate output images (like a photo collage) is coming soon.

* Buyers tap on the `+` button to upload (a) photos. They can select multiple photos at once, or upload one by one. Unlike "Single Upload", the `+` button still appears to upload more photos.
* Buyers can remove (`X`) or drag-reorder, then click `Generate image` and wait for the AI services to return the combined photo.


# How to set up a Multiple Uploads layer

* Open an Artwork (only in Artwork 2.0): in layer picker, select `Photo Upload` → choose `Multiple Uploads`.

* `Output Type`: currently only `Single Output` is available (`Multiple Outputs`, like photo collages, is coming later)
* `Maximum photos`: set how many photos a buyer can upload, up to a limit of 3 (GenAI services work best with 3 or fewer input images)
* `Upload editor`: choose `Direct Upload` or `Photo Reposition` *(Photo Cropper is not supported for Multiple Uploads).*
* `GenAI service`: pick the AI provider (OpenAI, Gemini, Flux...) — required for this layer
* `Fit mode`: same as `Single Upload` — controls how the combined output image fits the layer
* `Show customer's photo on live preview`: same as `Single Upload` — shows/hides the result on the live preview before checkout
* `Set minimum size`: same as `Single Upload`, but applies to every photo the buyer uploads, not just one
* `Add instruction for customer`: same as `Single Upload` — text shown to guide buyers on what to upload

* You can translate the "Generate image" button in `Product Page Content` → `Generate Image Buttons`
