@mons this pic is too small to make a good cut actually. His linkedin has a better one I think, but when I try to save it automatically gets blurry. Is there a trick to increase the resolution of those?

@mons replacing it with the older cut would be better maybe

Yeah I didn't know you needed to put sources without background through remove.bg as well, am doing that now. Also on photopea you don't have the dark roster option I think so you need to create a dark background every time to spot the snow. Do you have a better method for that?

I didn't reject it originally because I reckon a good cut can be gotten out of it with a few tweaks since the hair is so different…

 

So you mean the cut of rupruijs is not good enough?

@BramNUFC, when a source image is pre-cut like this one, it doesn't mean it just needs to be cropped and that's it. Very often, the background won't have been removed as well as we want it to be, which means there'd be a thin layer of snow around the head. 

 

 

Most times, all you'll need to do is put the pre-finished cut through remove.bg again 😉

 

Sometimes this might not be enough, so here's a video tutorial on how to easily spot and remove this snow:

 

 

Sorry to keep tagging you but it's important you get to know these little tips to make your life easier and your cuts even better 🙂

 

No I don't mind the advice. Think I wasn't paying attention enough because I see now the snow is very clear indeed

The actions menu just doesn't show up at all for me, you don't need a premium version for that right?

 

Nevermind, I literally  just had to search ‘actions' and now the icon has popped up. Thanks!

Clicking the icon circled in red will bring up the actions menu and the ones in lack to create a new set and a new action within it. Clicking the one in blue will enable you to record the action being done, and the one in lime to save it for posterity. You then just press the play button whenever you need to use it.

 

That's my understanding of it, anyway 👍

Doesn't seem like you can import the actual PS action file itself.

 

However, it looks like you can create them and save them for future use. So if you create one to add +10 brightness, you can use it and save some time. Same as most of the others, such as the resizing one, the add saturation one, adding gamma correction etc., which are all very useful.

 

Do you know exactly where you can create them? I can only find this script thing

@mons  I did all of these with my old method, can I just do them all again or is it too much work for you to replace them? Especially with these Ajax players I think it's important they are the best possible quality, since a lot of people will be doing a career with them.

@BramNUFC, , you're doing a great job, so kudos for that 👏

 

For images like this which are a bit on the dark side, it might be worth brightening them a bit to get what I think is a slightly more natural-looking cut. 

 

I fully appreciate that, when you're on a cutting speed-run as you evidently are, fiddling about with such relatively minor concerns is not necessarily uppermost in your thoughts, which is why I shared a Photoshop action file in this post (first link and also attached to the post itself). It contains several common actions I find extremely useful and time-consuming to access in this way while cutting. Instead of having to manually navigate to the brighten menu, I choose the Just Brighten action, press play and voila.

 

 

I'm using photopea and you can't add custom shortcuts there right? I'll try to mess around a bit with the brightness when I find another dark face
