Okay thanks, will have a look for the pack! :-)

Of course it's an improvement, and I will add it to the next update pack, but you didn't request it as an improvement, did you? That's the reason I would still reject any similar requests if not made properly, because this place would be a right mess if everybody started intentionally making requests in the wrong category to work around the 3 request limit. Every requester on this forum is patient and civil enough to wait until their requests are cut (or collected in mixpacks), and I see no reason why you should be any different. Please follow the rules and don't expect any special treatment.

And I'll use it next time by deleting any such requests

Perhaps you'll use yours when requesting next time, eh?

I'll consider it a genuine oversight this time and I've edited it accordingly, but please don't try to exceed your 3 improvement request limit again in this way.

I'm sure that with, your entitled attitude and rude manners, they'll all be rushing to your assistance. It's me you're going to have to deal with, yes, so best change your attitude if you want to stay on this forum.

Be patient, just like everybody else who made a request a while ago, and wait until it is either cut or collected into a mixpack, the latter of which is happening now actually.

Because they give me a stronger reason than "I want to make a new request". And please stop complaining all the time, it's tiring.

Why, what's wrong?

Nothing wrong with it, so I won't be rejecting just like that, it is an improvement after all.

I've been a bit busy lately but I'll soon be making a roundup of all pending missing and improvement requests in order to allow people to be able to make requests again. Until then, just be patient.

Like all requests, it will be taken up and cut when and if a cutter decides to do so...

I have gone into the gettyimages website code and found the picture url. This source is a bigger version of your screenshot Mons.

If you don't speak English, then I really don't know what I can say to explain the very simple technique to remove snow. Perhaps another Portuguese speaker can do so...

But did you even read what I wrote? Did I say it was not going to be included in the megapack? No! Because it will be added as I have cleaned it and removed the snow, as per the attached image.

What I did was politely gave you some minor and simple suggestions on how to improve your cutting. Now, if you want to ignore it, that's your call, but it's a pity for a cutter to spend time cutting images and then possibly not having them included in the MP because of minor issues relating to cutting technique which can be resolved very quickly to give a much better cut in-game. What you describe as "minor flaws" are what make a cut bad instead of good; I will take note of them and fix them wherever possible, and also point them out to cutters so that they can be fixed next time round, unless they're as obstinate as you are.

I don't care if he's famous or not, I only judge the quality of the cut against the present MP image. I for one much prefer seeing a new image of an obscure player rather than a slightly different cut of a famous player who was already cut a couple of months ago from an equally good source.

And please stop telling us what to do and how to do it, I'm quickly growing very tired of your arrogance. I don't understand how you think you can come in here and expect us to do what you want us to. We may not be perfect but we've been here for long enough to have developed a good system for creating and recognising good cuts. Polite suggestions on how to improve the megapack are always welcomed and encouraged, but yours are anything but. If you want your cuts to be included in the megapack for everybody's benefit (and not just yours), then you need to produce them according to our standards; it really is that simple.

Now, unless you have something civil and constructive to say, please don't waste more of my time.

@jpneto12, a couple of tips before making more cuts.

For one thing, your cuts generally contain some snow. This video tutorial is a very quick and easy way to identify and remove it.

Secondly, cuts should have only 1-2 pixels between the top of the head/hair and the top of the cut, and the same distance between the bottom of the chin/beard and the bottom of the cut. Otherwise there's a lot of wasted space in the area and less focus on the face.

Hope to see more work from you in the future, taking the above into consideration

There are on average over 2000 images in each update pack, and I don't have the time to check the forum to see which cuts are yours.

But as a sign of good faith, if you give me the UID's of some of your cuts, I'll try and find the time to see which ones went in. I'm not going to justify each and every decision, however. I think I've already explained in great detail how improvements are selected and really don't have the time to explain decisions on individual images...

Unless a cut is a total disaster, if it is missing, I will always include it in the MP. When a person is already in the MP and a new cut for him/her is produced, then I compare it with the MP cut to see if it's an improvement. If it is, it goes into the next MP; if not, it doesn't...

Nothing wrong with the source for the current MP cut and it's perfectly in line with how a good cut should be; you can see the source image in the link in my previous post.

If you think the new cut is better, the beauty of the megapack is that you can easily overwrite the present MP cut with this one on your own game in just 5 seconds.

The others you posted earlier today almost definitely are, especially as the current MP cuts are very old.

But this one just isn't, I'm afraid. The current is recent and is looking straight-on at the camera, while the new cut is looking slightly to the side and isn't really in profile. Nothing wrong with the cut itself, it's just that the source isn't an improvement.

This is not an improvement.

What's wrong with you?? Really, what do you think posting like this will achieve? I won't be drawn any further into this futile discussion.

If you want to remain part of our community, just try and be civil and follow our rules, or don't if you don't want to.

And which part of "I'm sick and tired of self-centred and spoilt individuals who care not a jot about the community but only about what they want and what they need, and have little respect for our very simple rules." did you not understand? And which part of my above post made you think I would make your request?? I'm not a very good cutter at all, but even if I was good enough (a) I can't get the sources as I've already said that the request needs to be re-uploaded as it's no longer available, and (b) I wouldn't waste my time helping out somebody who calls me ignorant and an idiot.

I've had enough of this. Behave yourself like an adult and be patient, just like everybody else here. And calm yourself down.
