Happy New Year Images — make your own 2027 wallpapers and greetings

Describe the picture in Image Studio — fireworks over a skyline, a countdown clock, “Happy New Year 2027” in gold letters — pick the size for where it's going, and press Create. The button on this page opens GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst with a fireworks prompt already filled in; the ideas table has ten more prompts to copy, from phone wallpapers to a funny caption image.

Free to start. Sign in with Google, GitHub or Discord — no card — and a new account gets 25 credits. Qwen Image 3.0 is on the free plan at 9 credits an image, so the starter credits make two. GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst (7.2 credits at 1K), Nano Banana 2.1 and Seedream 5.0 Pro use credits from one-time packs; the Starter pack is $15 for 1,300 credits, with no subscription.

GPT Image 2.5 Sunburst is the model in Kenerate tagged for text rendering, and Nano Banana 2.1 is described as rendering cleaner text. Both handle a short line like “Happy New Year 2027” well; no model is perfect with long sentences. Put the words in quotes, keep them short, and read every letter before you share. If one is wrong, change it with Edit Text in Image in Edit Studio, or make the image with “no text” and type the words with the free text tool.

Pick the shape in Image Studio: 9:16 fills a phone screen, so use it for a phone wallpaper and for WhatsApp status or Instagram stories; 1:1 or 4:5 for a feed post; 16:9 for a desktop or laptop wallpaper. Edit Studio can also resize a finished image to fixed canvases such as Story 1080 × 1920, Insta post 1080 × 1080 and Insta portrait 1080 × 1350.

Yes. Upload a clear photo, describe the scene — a rooftop at midnight with fireworks behind you, a sparkler in your hand, a gold sequin jacket — and end with “keep my face, hair and expression exactly the same”. A photo edit costs 11.7 credits on Sunburst at 1K or 9.9 on Qwen Image 3.0. Use only your own photo or photos of adults who agreed, and leave children's photos out.

Kenerate's Terms say you own what you generate and are responsible for how you use it, so you can post your images, use them as wallpapers or put them on a shop's New Year post. One caveat: the US Copyright Office's 2025 report on copyrightability ties copyright to human authorship, so a picture made entirely from a prompt may not be protected against others copying it. And because you made it, you don't have the licence questions that come with downloading someone else's image.

This page is for images you share or set as a wallpaper: fireworks, countdown clocks, text art, stories, your photo in a New Year scene. The AI New Year card generator is for cards — layout, your wish lettered in, print sizes such as 5×7 with bleed, and Lunar New Year cards. Same models, different jobs.

This page makes still images. To make the fireworks move, take your finished image to image-to-video and animate it into a short clip — video uses credits from a paid pack. A still image is what most people set as a wallpaper or post as a greeting anyway.

New Year's Day 2027 is Friday 1 January. Make your images during the last days of December, so you can fix a letter or try another style without a deadline, and post them just after midnight where you live. Wallpapers can go on any time in the first week of January.

Almost always a child word or an age. The filter blocks words such as child, kid, baby and teen, and any age under 18, and it catches everyday phrases too: “baby blue” (write “pale blue”), “minor changes” (write “small changes”), “kid-friendly” (write “family-friendly”) and numbers before “years”, like “3 years old” for a pet. Remove the word and run it again.
