Framing

Crop a generated scene to satisfy a named composition rule, graded purely on how well the geometry lands rather than on subjective taste.

How to play

Each scene names a composition principle and shows a focal subject. Move and resize your crop so the subject sits where the rule wants it, then take the shot to score.

• Drag inside the photo to position the crop; use the slider to resize it.
• A live grid overlays the active rule — thirds, golden ratio, balance, or leading lines.
• Watch the live composition-match percentage and adjust before shooting.
• Take the shot to lock in your score; press Show ideal to see the perfect crop.

Controls

• Desktop: drag the crop, drag the size slider, click Take the shot, Show ideal, and New scene.
• Phone & tablet: drag the crop and slider with your finger — touch-friendly.

Game modes

• Daily and Practice seeds across Easy, Medium, and Hard difficulty.

Tips & strategy

• Place the focal subject on a rule line or intersection, not dead centre, unless balance is the named rule.
• Resize as well as move — the right crop scale is often what pushes the match past 90%.
