Before doing further cutting I would recommend you to read this thread. On topo of the overly blue colors your cut has snow around the entire cut. Try also uploading the cuts on to sites that retain the filename.

far be it for me to hijack a thread as a member of Susie staff, but why is it only 3 requests and why is it policed so vigorously? surely its in everybody's best interest if people request players faces that aren't in the mega pack despite the number of players they ask for?
just a thought.

I believe that it would quite quickly flood the forum with more requests than the cutters can handle. I personally think that having some kind of limit for request is good to not get overwhelmed by all the requests. Whether the limit of 3 request at a time is good or not, I don't know.

only 3 requests at a time mons! read the original post! jubez & bajahater said so! ha ha

What exactly are you trying to say? That's one request with three different source images of the same person to choose from so I don't really know what your point is.

I just delete them

Maximum of three requests at a time, but in 1 hour for example or 24 hour ?

Maximum of three request per thread at any given time. Once your request is filled delete the source image from the original request and you are free to make another request. The rule is there so the forum doesn't get flooded with unfinished requests I believe.

And as a side note to mons and cutters: I still haven't found time to do cuttings lately and the little time I have had I've spent doing other things. so sorry about that. I'm sure I'll get some done sooner or later. I'm constantly checking the forum to stay on track what's going on though.

Read the rules please. Maximum of three requests at a time. Although your requests of Dalibor Veselinovic, Seth De Witte and Milos Kosanovic are not missing so at least post them in the correct thread.

What's up with all your bad requests and post. I think I haven't seen a single good request or post by you. First of all, the current cut is very good and secondly your cut has a white border around it... And it wouldn't be an improvement anyway.

EDIT: Your request of Willian ain't improvement either...

I personally like all the time consuming little details that are added to the game. I realize it's not everyone's cup of tea, but I like them and this is the first FM in several years that I'm truly excited of. The new 3D match engine seemed unfinished and I believe it will not be that great in FM15, but give it another year and it will become great. I'm sure of it.

It was the same request as before but without direct link to the image. I double checked it. That's enough off topic for tonight for me :3

What about not posting that non-improvement request twice a day? Instead you could just remove all your requests, since none of them is an improvement.

OK,final conclusion would be: nothing wrong with the current MP image


There's quite a bit wrong with the current MP image as it's overly blue and has a good amount of snow around his hair. Too bad that HQ image was so old since it's so high quality.

I was able to do this with the current cut, but it still doesn't look natural to me. Better than the current cut though.

And that one is not resized either, doesn't have any collar visible and has tons of snow around it just like pretty much all your cuts.

Dude... Cuts should always have some collar visible if possible (aka unless it's a missing cut and the source image doesn't have any collar visible or the existing image is just terrible) and your cut is 227x207px so it's not even resized to 180x180px as it should. Here's my cut and I also fixed the contrast a little.

How to reduce the image size from ~100kb to ~50kb without hurting the quality?

At least Photoshop asks if you want to use compression when you are saving in a png format. It reduces the file size to about half, which in case cut outs is around 50kB.

Could i get some feedback on my cutting. I used CS2 with the plug-ins from page one and using the extract tool.

They are quite good and don't need that much of improvement to be honest. As BajaHater said, crop the images so there's very little empty area left on top and there was also a little bit of snow left on the first two images. Those are easily fixed with the Clone Stamp Tool though. Just lock transparent pixels and use Clone Stamp tool in Darken mode to darken that little bit of snow and you are good to go really. There was a little bit of leftovers from the background too, which ain't very visible in 180x180 pixels, but generally speaking you should zoom in and check if there's some. There's a lot around the head in the second cut (can be seen on a dark background), altough it can't be seen very well in a smaller size. You also want to rotate the image if the head is tilted sideways.

Here's an example from your mix pack. The second one is a bit fuzzy because I had to overscale it after croping the empty space, but I suppose you get the point.

I've just recently noticed that there's some new cutters who could've used this thread and without it being sticky it's easy to miss. I agree that there's already quite a few stickies though and having too many of them kinda removes the purpose of them, but I also think that this thread is essential for new cutters and should be stickied as such. But let's see if anyone else shares my opinion or if the only one thinking so.

How come this thread is not sticky? I just realized it when I had to look for the background tools again after reinstalling my OS.

All those cuts got tons of snow around them.. Do you even check your cuts on a dark background before posting them?

It had a little bit of green snow left which I fixed alongside with the gamma.

Now it looks even worse,maybe this one will fix...

I disagree it looking worse (although it definitely doesn't look good) and this one just looks really bad to me (no offense <3). This time I sharpened your original cut instead of doing a cut from another source and I think it looks a lot better now:

Note: My graphics card broke last Sunday and I'm using my old card until I get the new one on next Monday or Tuesday. I can't be arsed to calibrate my monitors until I get the new card so I haven't bothered with cutting either (the colors with this card seems to be a bit off, since I haven't calibrated it).
