Thanks BajaHater
Do you reckon I could do requests etc if they're done to that standard?

Yeah I'll continue to work on my technique BajaHater. But thanks for pointing that out Jubez, I did a little inspection of the cut-out at the end but obviously not close enough, hopefully I can iron out these little errors and become a pro like you guys The only thing I'm not quite sure on is adjusting a cut-outs face if the head is at an angle like the image below, any advice/ tips you could give me? Also how would I go about cleaning the background up Jubez so I don't get that fuzz? When I check against a black background I can't see anything.

Right I think I've sorted the problems you mentioned...

Hopefully I got it right this time. Once again thanks Jubez and it's good to be of help (soon)

Ah I see, I was just using "align with horizontal centre" in Photoshop.
Better?
Jubez
What I did was that I just cut the shoulder off, rotated it a little and then put it a pixel or two under the main layer. I also improved the contrast a little and changed the color of his shoulders to match the neck since it looked weird after relocating his shoulder.
That's not really necessary though, but something I would personally do since it looks better to me.

Thanks mons , I've been trying to find better pictures but it seems like teams in Ecuador don't take pictures of their players .

Hi there, thanks for that. There's some good cuts in there which will definitely make it into the MP.
There's some images, however, who have a fair amount of snow. Do take the time to view the cut in full-screen mode and on a black or transparent background - this will display the snow much better. Jubez's post is a very simple and visual description of what I mean. It's really quite simple to fix, as indicated in my post, a matter of seconds mostly.
Another thing to keep in mind in cases where there is an MP image already is to chose sources which are really improvements. Some of the images in the improvement folder may be more recent, but they are not looking straight-on at the camera and the lighting is really poor. In cases like this, no matter how good the cut, then it won't replace the existing MP images.
Finally, do try to make sure you include a bit of collar, to avoid the chicken-neck effect.
That being said, I look forward to seeing you improve your technique in the future with a few more packs Don't give up, it's really easy to get the hang of it

Yeah, I noticed the snow when I opened the game ... I'll check that video tutorial. About the 'chicken-neck'. Well, I added a small part of shirt to some of them, but I'm lazy, and I didn't do that with all.
And yes, some of them aren't good pics, but I uploaded them just in case.
Thanks again for your time and definitely I'll try to improve to help.

Have you tried to use Vertus? There's a very practical tutorial here.
If you prefer to refine your Refine Edge technique, have a look at pacouk's pictorial tutorial from here onwards.
Hope this helps

just use the free select tool for necks and then File> Export and save as a .png

Lock the image using the Lock Alpha Layer button in Layers panel. then use clone stamp to colour the bits of hair you missed. Set the opacity to 38% hold CTRL as you select a bit to copy.
use the select tool to crop out any white and view it against black and white backgrounds by creating new layers. one with foreground colour and the other with background. then put that layer behind the main image. i sometimes lock the layer and use smudge tool to drag colours at the edge of the face to the edge if i have snow there but I dont do that with hair.
Try to centre the image by putting the crosshairs between his eyes and check the box width pixels are the same size. try to get a big head and face by leaving a pixel at the top and a few below his chin when you crop it. and also if the shoulders rise above the corners of the box after you crop it then use the rubber so it finishes at the edge.
hope this helps

thanks mate, I'll take that into consideration x
