How can you complete parts of a photograph or illustration while taking advantage of artificial intelligence?
Outpaintingoutpainting or uncrop can get you out of trouble in many situations. This operation completes a photograph or illustration by adding elements to certain lateral contours (right, left, top, bottom) or to all of these contours. Artificial intelligence ensures that these additions make sense in the image in question.
Most image generative AIs offer outpainting or uncrop services. This is particularly the case of Leonardo.ai or Stable Diffusion XL. There are also various tools specialized in retouching such as outpainting, such as VMake AI.
Here we will use the Uncrop tool from Stability.ai, the company which is behind Stable Diffusion and which has the double advantage of being free and of high quality. The only constraint is that your requests are placed on a waiting list and you sometimes have to wait several minutes before obtaining the requested result. Uncrop is available at this address: clipdrop.co/fr/uncrop
In this example, we will start with a square image, that of a frog dressed as a businessman and which is at the top of a skyscraper in New York.
We drop this image in the blue area of Uncrop. This square illustration is placed by default in the center of a landscape format frame. The size and orientation of this frame can be changed by adjusting the options located below the image: portrait, landscape, square and also the width and height parameters.
How to improve a photograph with upscaling?
You can also adjust the edges of the image to choose the parts that need to be completed, or move it to one edge or another. Once the settings are defined, click “Next”.
And There you go. Now you usually have to wait because your request has been placed in a queue. You can see your position change over the seconds. This may seem like a long time depending on when you apply – morning is the best time. If you wanted to avoid this wait, you would have to choose a paid Clipdrop plan. In the end, you see four proposals appear: outpainting.

If none of the four images seems satisfactory, the request should obviously be repeated.
