@Lampard63 Good first try, but I'd like to advise you to use remove.bg in order to remove the background. As you can see, it leaves very smooth edges, and will save you the work of doing it yourself 😉
We also want the dimensions of the cut to be 250x250 pixels, or 180x180 when you have a small source image 👍
@Lampard63, in addition to what BramNUFC said, 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.
Take a look at this thread for guidelines for cutters and video tutorials for some more info on what we expect for from our cuts.
Here's a couple of videos on how to use remove.bg, 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.
