Crop the image to the area around the face before using remove.bg. If you follow @mons' tutorial videos you shouldn't end up with a blurry cutout like that.

Is the picture ok?

It's okay, but could be better 😉 You can get larger image sizes from gettyimages by following these instructions

@CK Rainbow Firstly, cutouts should be 250*250px when the source image is large enough/high quality enough.

Secondly, there's bits of white background ("snow" ) around the hair in your cutouts. Please take a read of the Tutorials and Guidelines for Cutters thread or the tutorial videos in this link before making any more cutouts

I recommend using remove.bg to cut out images, it's automatic and will result in a much better cutout without the thick white outline ("snow" ) around the hair.

@Gamatroy This is far too blurry compared to the source image. Are you cropping the source image to the area around the face before using remove.bg?

@Gamatroy What are you using for your cutouts? There's a thick white outline around the hair which makes the cutout useless for adding to the megapack. Please take a read of the Tutorials and Guidelines for Cutters thread or the tutorial videos in this link before making any more cutouts

@Gamatroy When you're resizing or cropping the cutout, be sure to constrain the proportions/aspect ratio. You've stretched it horizontally which looks unnatural and should be avoided.

Current cutout which is in the megapack is taken more recently.

You'll need to tag @mons to be sure he sees this comment 👍

Funnily enough I did do that--guess I didn't shorten the dude's neck enough! :-)

Much better 👍 In the future, you should aim to crop just below the player's chin, 2-3 pixels space should be enough.

@LFCYNWA When the player has a long neck like this one, the collar should be moved up so that you can crop the image closer to the chin. This video demonstrates how to easily do that:

@Daz10Nolan Can you post the source image for that cutout? It's fairly blurry, the face should be rotated a few degrees clockwise so that it's upright rather than tilted to one side, and the image should be cropped closer to the player's chin.

These videos might help you refine your technique and improve the quality of your cutouts:

Apologize, I didn't noticed that.

As julkjulk said, the current cutout is from this season and his appearance hasn't really changed. Additionally, the source image you posted has been upscaled as well so it's pixellated.

@tv_capper Please remember that all cutouts should include some of the collar. Additionally, you should crop the image closer to the chin - 2 or 3 pixels is enough.

It's the a big improvement? I skipped 19 and bought 20. I have 18 too. I've been told that there's not that many differences from game to game.

IMO FM21 isn't a big step up from FM20. Unless you've really like the updated squads/transfers then you might as well wait for FM22.

@cebul This cutout is too blurry compared to the source image, as well as compared to the player's current cutout which is the level of image sharpness you should try to achieve.

I believe my second submission is better, but let me know if there's any change required

The only other thing I'd mention is that in the second source image, it maybe could be rotated slightly clockwise, just so that the face is upright/straighter rather than at a slight angle. https://sortitoutsi.net/comments/get/614040
