@hectorfg35, a few of the cuts in this pack seems to have been produced after being put through an image-enlarging app/tool.

 

Using an AI image enlarger just “guesses” what certain pixels should look like when you make the image larger, and the result looks blurry/out of focus on certain details, with unrealistically smoothened skin, and unnatural looking hair/beard/eye/teeth details.

 

Using these tools should be avoided. If the source image isn't good enough, then it shouldn't be cut at all in the first place.

I understand what you are saying, but in some cases, when the images are so bad and small, specially in lower Spanish leagues, there may be no choice.

As I see it, perhaps having a slightly modified image, as long as the essence of the face is not lost, is preferable to having nothing at all.

In this particular case (very pixeled when zoomed in face), I think the result is fantastic. Other are even more necessary. but if it can't be done, I accept it.

You can always upload cuts in 180x180, though 🤷🏻‍♂️

yes, I know, when the quality of the photo is low, that's how I do it. But in these cases it is not that it is low, it is that it is practically unusable from the beginning and this rescaling opens the margin so that they can be used. Obviously there are cases and cases.
