@alomiler This isn't an improvement - the current cutout is from 6 months ago, his appearance is very similar and your cutout looks like it was printed out and re-scanned so it has a sort of dot matrix effect detracting from the image quality.

Requested pic rejected as it's pre-cut & won't produce as good a cut-out as the current very good cut-out.

 

In fact it's the same source/from the same photoshoot as this cutout but with the current season's shirt photoshopped on @Lubcha

Man hadnt got a proper photo since 2019-20 season

 

Just because it's more recent doesn't make it an improvement.

@AOzanA27  Not much difference in his appearance compared to the current cutout, and the upscaling of the image means it isn't high quality.

@77david54 still, not much difference in his appearance, and he isn't looking at the camera in your source.

@mons I think the colours in HRiddick's cutout are slightly better than the megapack version; more natural looking and less pink.

The one from Getty Images is larger, but it's looking away from the camera and the face is half in shadow and half in light. 

 

The most recent source isn't enormous but it's big enough to provide a 250x cut looking at the camera without needing to upscale it and thus lose sharpness. I think I'd prefer that one tbh, especially since there is very little change in his appearance from the existing cut other than a bit of goatee to justify a replacement not looking at the camera.

 

@77david54 The source requested by MrKarizzi above is from the same source as your second image, just with a transparent background - I'd recommend using that source for a cutout, it doesn't need to be put through remove.bg as there doesn't seem to be any snow, the image itself looks a bit better quality (your second source has noticeable jpeg compression, MrKarizzi's does not) and is still large enough for a 250px cutout.

Thank you very much , i thought the “ gettyimages ” site was paying , i regret not having asked before. Besides , i think many do not know , for example , it would be nice to recommend “ gettyimages ” or “ mbmedia ” to those who have trouble finding good sources.

There's actually a thread for listing source links to try and help with that - not only for sites like gettyimages but also club/league websites where you can find good quality images.

@sou_eu Make sure you request an image (https://example.com/image.png), rather than a link to a web page (https://example.com/page.html).

@weeniehutjr  , this source is on August 28 , 2020. The previous source is on July 11 , 2018.

There is the same image in bigger size and better quality on gettyimages but it is too expensive.

Please , can we have the Liverpool staff and the few players who need to be recut in source gettyimages ?

You can get the 2048px preview image by opening it in a new tab (or saving it) from the image page

@weeniehutjr, did you get that from transfermarkt? I only found the small version on Google Images - do you have a shortcut of how you can find the largest version so I can do so and guide others too?

 

Yep, this is the URL from google images: https://img.a.transfermarkt.technology/portrait/header/540995-1605135063.jpg

And the original size URL: https://tmssl.akamaized.net/images/portrait/originals/540995-1605135063.jpg

@Stilyan Krastev In the future, please don't just use the first image you find on google. I found several much better source images on Botev's website. Take a read of this thread if you'd like tips/advice for how to find better source images.

@Sandor Parsakov Please also note that source images (ones that need to be cut) should be submitted under the “Source” type, not “Game Ready” which is for completed cutouts.

Also, in the future for images from Spanish clubs (hosted on “proyectoclubes.com”) you can use this guide to get larger image sizes: https://sortitoutsi.net/comments/get/540796

@Jrpmaestro This isn't the correct player - where did you get the image from? It's likely that you meant to request a cut for a player with a similar name.

@mons I cleaned up the edges and sharpened it a bit, any good?

@JoeMoon1506 I think this cutout would benefit from being rotated a couple of degrees clockwise

@julkjulk This source is from 2000 - a 20 year old source image won't be an improvement.

@77david54 - A good cutout, but your clone stamping was very rough and left noticeable circle patches - in the future, I recommend using a clone stamp brush with soft edges (0% hardness) and a low opacity - between 20-40% often works, depending on the image. Resampling the clone source often to more accurately match what you need to paint over also helps 👍

@mons Fixed the harsh clone stamping as above - also uploaded an alternate cutout from October 2020

@pppfff The face in this source is too small as well, and his appearance is still quite similar.

@pppfff Firstly, this image is far too small to be an improvement on the current cutout. The size of the face in the images you request needs to be much larger than this.

 

Secondly, you should request images that need to be cut with the “Source” tag, not the “Game Ready” tag which is for completed cutouts.

@RJK10 As you have already been told, read the advice in this thread before making any more cutouts, and remember that cutouts should have the image dimensions 250*250px.

@ibrahim1717 I've rejected your source as it's a compressed/low quality image, and he isn't looking at the camera. I've uploaded a more recent source (June 2020, yours is from 2018 or older) 👍

I haven't been able to find out for sure which is the more recent. Seems like the one in the Uruguay kit was when he was an Under 15 international player, and he's 17 next month, so I think it may be the older source.

 

I can't tell for sure either, but from the website URLs it appears the source of the current cutout is from summer 2018, and the source wearing the Uruguay kit is from summer 2019 (wearing the 2019 Copa America kit). This source from late 2019 or early 2020 is also similar in appearance.

An image for this player has been cut already. The one you've requested is a good source, but it doesn't need to be cut too since the other image has been produced.

 

IMO the hair is different enough that, if it's a more recent source than the one the current cut is from, would be an improvement.
