@Colonel440, these are quite low-quality cuts with faces which are somewhat lacking in sharpness, some snow and most of which are not in the right dimensions.

 

This thread contains guidelines for what we're looking for in our cuts in terms of dimensions, snow, collars, face orientation etc. and video tutorials for each element.

 

Can you provide us with the original source images without the background removed for all the rejected cuts so that we can cut them according to the guidelines?

 

If you want to give it another go yourself, I would recommend using remove.bg, which is a free online tool which removes the background to an excellent standard, for free and almost instantly.

 

Here's a couple of videos on how to use it, one when combined with Photoshop and another using photopea.com, which is a free online app so close to Photoshop that it has the same shortcuts, layout and icons.

 

If you don't have Photoshop, photopea.com is the tool I would recommend to use to tweak the draft cut produced by remove.bg. It's more powerful and versatile than GIMP and other similar tools.

Hi @mons, thank you so much for taking the time out to check these. I had read the thread earlier, and have used remove.bg for all of the cuts, but I guess the source images weren't of high-enough quality themselves. I shall try to give it another go, if you don't mind.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @mons, thank you so much for taking the time out to check these. I have used remove.bg for all of the cuts, but I guess the source images weren't of high-enough quality themselves. I shall only upload source images henceforth, thanks.
About the dimensions, should final cutouts only be 250x250 and 180x180?

Thanks in advance.

 

Yes, as per the guidelines, if the source is small or poor, then the cut should be in 180x180, otherwise aim for 250x250. 

 

Also, don't leave such large empty gaps above the head and avoid cropping too much below the chin, as in some of the cuts in these 2 packs. 2-3 pixels in each case is sufficient.

250x250

Thank you for helping me out so much! I have tried another cut. Would something like this be okay? Thanks again for your time and input.

Much, much better 👏

 

The better and bigger the source, the better the cut 🙂
