Describe the movement and you get a 9-frame loop. Flare makes 512 × 512 pixels for 12 credits, Economy 414 × 414 for 5. The GIF is always square.
Looping animation of a neon sign in a dark rainy alley that flickers on letter by letter until it reads "ULAZAI" in lime-green neon tubes, then buzzes and flickers off again. Wet brick wall, soft reflections, same camera angle in every frame.
Smooth looping stop-motion animation of a matte lime-green ceramic desk lamp on a dark charcoal studio table. The lamp switches on, warm light blooms across the table, the small white paper tag that reads "2.6" swings gently, then the light dims and the loop restarts. Same camera angle in every frame, clean minimal product style.
Each engine got the Economy lamp as reference and the same request: put it in a bedroom at night. The lamp shape and the tag stayed the same in all three.




Place the exact lamp from image 1 on a bedside table in a cozy Scandinavian bedroom at night, the lamp switched on and casting warm light on linen bedding. Keep the lamp's shape, colour and the paper tag reading "2.6" exactly the same.
Three lamps and the bakery went in as references. Flare placed them on the window sill at 2K and kept OPEN TILL LATE readable. With four references this costs 15 credits instead of 10.
Four reference images
Result, Flare 2K
Put the three lamps from images 1, 2 and 3 side by side on the window sill of the bakery from image 4, all switched on, as a product display. Keep each lamp's design exact, keep the bakery's sign reading "OPEN TILL LATE". Blue hour, rain on the glass, cinematic.
These numbers come from the same code that charges you. On Flare and Sunburst every reference after the first adds 1.5 credits, rounded up.
In a batch every 2.6 image costs the full price. Failed jobs are refunded.
The 4K bakery came out at 3840 × 2160 pixels. Zoom in on the rain on the glass and you see blocky patches. Check details before you print or crop. The same goes for small text and logos in any edit.


Cinematic wide shot of a small Amsterdam canal-side bakery window at blue hour, light rain on the glass, warm interior glow. A hand-lettered gold sign above the window reads "OPEN TILL LATE". A chalk menu board in the window lists: "Stroopwafel 2,50", "Appeltaart 4,25", "Koffie 3,00". Bicycles parked in the foreground, reflections in the wet cobblestones, 35mm film look, crisp legible lettering.
