GPT Image 2.5 Image Generator questions

Inputs, supported controls, credit cost, privacy, and recovery—before you start.

What is GPT Image 2.5?

GPT Image 2.5 is OpenAI’s image model family for generating and editing images. SugarCube offers Flare and Sunburst with text prompts, optional references and 1K, 2K or 4K output tiers. OpenAI-labelled options provide the larger reference and prompt allowances.

What is the difference between Flare and Sunburst?

OpenAI positions Flare for general-purpose creative work and faster iteration, and Sunburst for extra precision with longer generation times. Both support generation and reference-led editing here. The parenthetical OpenAI label identifies the higher-input SugarCube integration with different limits and credit prices.

What does the OpenAI label mean?

The OpenAI label identifies SugarCube options supporting up to 16 references and 20,000 prompt characters, compared with 8 references and 5,000 characters for the 40-credit options. Both Flare and Sunburst are available with either input allowance, and all options support text-to-image and reference-led editing.

How much does GPT Image 2.5 cost on SugarCube?

The 40-credit Flare and Sunburst options keep the same price at 1K, 2K or 4K. OpenAI-labelled options cost 50, 80 or 130 credits respectively. Check the selected option’s displayed price before creating. Failed generations are refunded automatically; successful images still use credits even if you prefer another variation.

Can I use multiple reference images?

Yes. The 40-credit options support up to 8 JPG, PNG or WebP references and prompts up to 5,000 characters; OpenAI-labelled options support 16 references and 20,000 characters. Explain each reference’s role and the details to preserve. Inputs stay in this browser until Studio starts processing.

Can GPT Image 2.5 make accurate poster text?

It can generate images with text, but spelling, dates and small characters still require review. Supply exact short wording, clear hierarchy and generous spacing. For publication-critical copy, finish text in a design editor.

Is GPT Image 2.5 free with a SugarCube account?

GPT Image 2.5 uses SugarCube credits. A trial for another model does not imply a free GPT Image 2.5 generation. Check your available balance and the displayed cost before creating; subscriptions and permanent credit top-ups are listed on the pricing page.

Where do I create, edit and download the result?

Prepare your prompt and references here, then click Create. SugarCube Studio starts generation automatically after sign-in and input readiness, and shows progress and results. Completed images are available to their authenticated owner for download and further refinement.
