GPT Image 2.6
Create and edit images with Flare or Sunburst. Turn your next idea into a product visual, portrait, or poster.
We do not support adult, explicit, privacy-invasive, or unsafe image generation. Blocked requests do not use credits. See Acceptable Use.

What’s new in GPT Image 2.6?
OpenAI introduced Images 2.6 on November 4, 2026, with faster creation and improved consistency when revising characters, products, and brand visuals. The release also introduces animated GIFs, SVG exports, and more control over image editing. Read the official announcement.
Flare for fast iteration
Explore concepts, poster layouts, and product imagery. OpenAI reports generation as short as six seconds at low quality; that is a model benchmark, not a Vismuse turnaround guarantee.
Sunburst for detail
Compare fine detail and consistency across edits, especially at medium or high quality. This form uses medium at 1K and low at 2K/4K.
More editing control
The API adds a separate planning-complexity setting and transparent markup overlays for indicating a change area.
GIF and SVG output
Create looping animations or scalable vector artwork through supported API requests. These formats have different limits from still images.
GPT Image 2.6 vs 2.5
Both families offer Flare and Sunburst for text-to-image and reference-based editing. The 2.6 update expands the workflow with motion, vector output, markup, and adjustable planning effort. It also changes token consumption, so the same quality label does not imply the same provider cost. Check OpenAI’s API guide and APIMart’s current parameters.
For an existing project, compare the same prompt and reference with GPT Image 2.5 before choosing which result to keep.

How to use GPT Image 2.6 on Vismuse
Choose Flare or Sunburst
Use the model selector above, then choose your image ratio and resolution. The button displays the credit price per image.
Describe your image
Include the purpose, subject, layout, lighting, and exact text. Upload a reference when subject identity or an existing design matters.
Generate, review, and refine
Check the result in your conversation. For the next revision, state what to change and which details should remain.
GPT Image 2.6 prompt ideas
Product campaign
Create a square product campaign image for a cobalt-blue ceramic coffee cup on a pale stone counter. Soft morning light, warm neutral background, crisp ceramic texture. Place the cup in the lower right and leave the upper left clear for a headline. No text or logos.
Poster with exact copy
Create a vertical botanical workshop poster. Use cream paper, deep green ink, delicate leaf illustrations, and clear editorial typography. Render exactly these three lines: "GROW TOGETHER", "Botanical Workshop", "Saturday · 10 AM". Keep generous margins and make the headline the strongest element. No additional text.
A focused image edit
Use my uploaded image. Change only the background to a warm cream studio setting. Keep the subject, facial features, expression, clothing, crop, lighting, and existing text unchanged.
Upload your image before using this edit prompt.
GIF, SVG, and new API controls
APIMart uses the model IDs gpt-image-2.6-flare and gpt-image-2.6-sunburst with its asynchronous image endpoint. The Vismuse form above selects those exact models for still images.
For GIFs, APIMart documents text-only input, 2–16 frames, and pixel-based frame sizes. SVG requests require a separate authoring model and one output. Neither format accepts reference images, masks, or markup through APIMart’s documented route. GIF and SVG billing differs from ordinary image output.
complexity controls planning effort independently of rendering quality. Markup-guided editing uses a transparent PNG overlay matching the first reference image. These developer controls are not exposed in this Vismuse form. See APIMart’s full specification.
GPT Image 2.6 FAQ
What is GPT Image 2.6?
GPT Image 2.6 is OpenAI’s image generation and editing model family, with Flare and Sunburst API variants. It adds GIF and SVG output, complexity control, and markup-guided edits alongside still-image workflows.
Should I choose Flare or Sunburst?
Start with Flare for quick concepts and iteration. Compare Sunburst when detailed scenes or consistency across edits matter. Results and speed depend on the prompt, quality, size, and provider load.
Can I generate directly on this page?
Yes. Choose GPT Image 2.6 Flare or Sunburst in the form, enter your prompt, optionally upload a reference image, and select the image ratio and resolution. Your result opens in a conversation for review and further edits.
Does this Vismuse workbench generate GIFs or SVGs?
This workbench currently generates and edits still images. GIF and SVG are model/API capabilities described below; they are not output options in this form. The official examples are credited to OpenAI and are not Vismuse-generated results.
How much does generation cost?
The form shows the Vismuse price per image: 10 credits for 1K, 20 for 2K, and 40 for 4K. The workbench uses medium quality at 1K and low at 2K/4K. Review the final generation plan and account access before submitting.
Do I need an API key?
No personal API key is required to use this Vismuse form. Developers integrating GPT Image 2.6 directly can consult OpenAI’s documentation or APIMart’s model pages.
