@Michael Nordin, the dimensions for our cuts are 250x250. Please upload them in this size in the future. Also, as clearly stated in the guidelines to uploading images precisely to avoid this kind of message, if you have multiple cuts, please do so as a pack and save the both of us some time. I'll see what I can do to fix these uploads.
For next time, have a look at this thread for guidelines for cutters and video tutorials on what we expect for from our cuts. Also, please make sure to follow the guidelines on uploading images for people who already have a cut. We don't consider a newer cut automatically an improvement, it has to be of a superior quality too 👍
I recommend using remove.bg for your cuts. It's a fantastic free online tool which does the heavy lifting for you by removing the background in the source image, leaving you to only rotate, crop and/or nudge the collar upwards. It's tremendously easy to use and provides fantastic quality. With it, you can go from source to cut in a couple of minutes for the vast majority of images.
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.
Moreover, we also want all our cuts to have a collar. In cases like this where the collar is lower down or the neck is overly long, here's a method on how to nudge the collars upwards to include them in your cropped version.
