+##### Image Upload & Generation
+
+Image upload and generation are supported by three main providers:
+
+- **Bing & Other GPT-4 Providers:** Utilizes Microsoft's Image Creator.
+- **Google Gemini:** Available for free accounts with IP addresses outside Europe.
+- **OpenaiChat with GPT-4:** Accessible for users with a Plus subscription.
+
+```python
+import g4f
+
+# Setting up the request for image creation
+response = g4f.ChatCompletion.create(
+    model=g4f.models.default, # Using the default model
+    provider=g4f.Provider.Gemini, # Specifying the provider as Gemini
+    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Create an image like this"}],
+    image=open("images/g4f.png", "rb"), # Image input can be a data URI, bytes, PIL Image, or IO object
+    image_name="g4f.png" # Optional: specifying the filename
+)
+
+# Displaying the response
+print(response)
+```

 ##### Using Browser
 
 Some providers using a browser to bypass the bot protection. They using the selenium webdriver to control the browser. The browser settings and the login data are saved in a custom directory. If the headless mode is enabled, the browser windows are loaded invisibly. For performance reasons, it is recommended to reuse the browser instances and close them yourself at the end:
