# Hugging Face Space: Image to Chibi/Anime/Cartoon Sticker Generator

This Space provides an API endpoint `/generate` that:
1. Accepts an image and a style (chibi, anime, cartoon, etc.).
2. Captions the image using BLIP.
3. Constructs a DALL·E 3 prompt and calls OpenAI's API to generate a set of stickers.
4. Returns the generated sticker image URL.

## Flow (Numbered)
1. **User uploads an image** (`image`) and specifies a sticker style (`style`).
2. **App generates a caption** using BLIP (image captioning).
3. **App constructs a DALL·E 3 prompt** combining the style and generated caption.
4. **App sends the prompt to OpenAI DALL·E 3** and retrieves a sticker image URL.
5. **App returns a JSON** containing the caption, prompt, and image URL.

## Usage

### POST `/generate`
- `image`: (file, required) — Input image (JPEG/PNG).
- `style`: (text, optional, default: "chibi") — Sticker style ("chibi", "anime", "cartoon", etc.).

#### Response
