GPT Image 2.6 AI Image Generator & Editor - Image26

Image26 is an online image generator and photo editor running on GPT Image 2.6. Write a description to create a new image, or upload a photo and describe the change you want.

GPT Image 2.6 is OpenAI's image model released in November 2026, the one behind ChatGPT Images 2.6. It comes as Flare, built for speed (OpenAI says up to 50% faster than 2.5), and Sunburst, for fine detail and edits that stay consistent. On Image26 they are Fast and Thinking. New in 2.6: looping GIFs, SVG graphics and circle-to-edit markup.

Use Fast to explore ideas and for everyday images; it comes back quickly. Switch to Thinking for crowded layouts, small details and edits that must be exact. Both cost the same, and you can change mode at any time.

SVG works best for logos, icons, badges and other simple flat graphics: clean shapes, a few colors and little or no text. It stays sharp at any size, but detailed illustrations and long lettering often come out distorted, so use a normal image for those. A GIF is a short loop of one simple motion, such as steam rising, a sign flickering or a mascot waving, with the camera held still. Both are made from a prompt only and need GPT Image 2.6; a GIF costs the same as a still, an SVG a few credits more.

Yes. GPT Image 2.6 is the default, and GPT Image 2.5 stays in the model menu in Fast and Thinking. It costs fewer credits at the Low and Standard tiers, so it suits quick drafts and large batches. GIFs, SVGs and circle edits need 2.6.

Yes. New accounts receive free credits for a first image. After that you use credits from a plan or a pack, and every image shows its cost before you generate.

Very good for headlines and short labels. Put the exact words in quotes in your prompt, and proofread the result before it goes to print.

Yes. Add multiple images to a single request, such as a model plus a jacket for a try-on, or a handful of photos that set the style.

Describe the subject, the setting, the style and any text you want, in plain words and in any language. Put exact wording in quotes. To adjust a result, attach it as a reference in Image26 and describe what to change.

Fifteen aspect ratios, from 3:1 panoramas through square to 1:3 tall strips, at 1K, 2K or 4K. Leave size and ratio on Auto and the model picks what fits the prompt.

Yes, paid plans come with a commercial license for what you create. For large-scale publishing, also review OpenAI's usage policies.
