Not bad @johnloch, but cropping the source before putting it through remove.bg and then leaving no more than 2-3 pixels above the top of the head and beneath the chin will produce a better cut, generally speaking.

Good cut @johnloch, but a source image this large is amply sufficient to produce a 250x250 cut.
Have a look at this thread for guidelines for cutters and video tutorials on what we expect for from our cuts.
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.
If you have any difficulties or want to ask for help, please post in the tutorials thread before uploading cuts to the submissions forum, and I'm sure we'll guide you accordingly 👍
