Debuted with a Serie A draw against Juventus this weekend, but hardly any decent sources are available

Thanks for the cut @Bothan Spy and for the possible source @weeniehutjr. Sorry for not getting in touch earlier, but I'm super busy right now! I wanted to find the time to try and get a good screenshot of it, but Bothan was quicker to the punch than me

@mons Yeah it was a bad source picture. Ironically you would have refused that if it were anyone else requesting it! ha ha. I did my best. Noticed that you had gone. I seem to be the only one holding the fort image request wise recently! Some have not been easy either! lol. But I muddle on through...

I am happy to recut this lad if you find a better source.

These are very good source images @Brain Slug, but these are exactly the kind of images which don't need to be cut, and for which the below is included in the guidelines.

 

  • If you are requesting an image for a person who already has a cut in the megapack, please make sure that the source you are uploading will produce an improvement. We don't consider a newer image to be automatically an improvement since we also take quality of source and cut into consideration. If the current megapack cut is recent and similar in look (check on his/her timeline before uploading an image), there is little added value in cutting another source for the person. Just because a source image is more recent than that in the MP does not automatically mean it's an improvement. It's better to have a slightly older image in the MP if it is of better quality. Ask yourself, is it really an improvement to the existing MP image? If it's the same face and hairstyle with just this season's new kit, it's probably just an alternative. Please keep in mind that we have a limited number of cutters and hundreds of thousands of images in the megapack, so we can't update them every few months or so.

 

This player was cut only a few weeks ago and the current cut is very good, so what's the benefit in our cutters spending time cutting him again. Same for a lot of images in these 2 packs, which is why they're being rejected. If, keeping all the above in mind, there are some of them which you think should be cut anyway, tag me and I'll reopen just those ones.

 

Having said, these are very easy to cut. Why don't you consider giving it a go yourself instead of depending on others to do it? You'd get to see them in your game much more quickly this way 😉

 

This thread contains guidelines for what we're looking for in our cuts in terms of dimensions, snow, collars, face orientation etc. and video tutorials for each element.

 

I would recommend using remove.bg, which is a free online tool which removes the background to an excellent standard, for free and almost instantly.

 

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.

@Lara, when you have a lot of images to upload, then you should upload them as a pack instead of individually and save the both of us some time.

You can also request up to 50 images per pack instead of just 6 when done individually.
