@AlexYNWA92 , your cuts still need a bit of refinement. For the time being, it's best if you post your work in the learn to cutout thread so that we can guide you on where your work needs improvement. This way, you can know where you need to tweak your technique, while any cuts uploaded as completed are of the required standard

I appreciate your enthusiasm but this website is not intended as a personal cut-out service, but to improve the megapack.

Since:
a) we don't consider newer images as automatic improvements, and
b) cutting such requests would mean that cutters' valuable time is being diverted from more pressing requests,
the decision was taken long ago that these kind of requests are not considered improvements.

That said, if somebody cut them, I would assess them on their own merits and decide whether they are better cuts than the ones presently in the megapack.

Finally, there's really no need to ask for payment. You can do it all yourself for free using the programs, tools and guidelines in this thread. You'd be surprised how easily and quickly you can cut images yourself

@AlexYNWA92 Since these sources are already precut, you can use an online image editor like picresize.com to crop them for use in your game. However the images will probably be smaller than the 250px current cutouts and might have snow/white edges

I'm sorry but in all 3 cases, the source requested is actually smaller than the existing megapack cut which is of a better quality.

Please try and understand what constitutes an improvement. These kind of sources are the precise reason why the bottom two guidelines are included when making a request:

Just because a source image is more recent than that in the MP does not automatically mean it's an improvement. It's better to have a slightly older image in the MP if it is of better quality.
Ask yourself, is it really an improvement to the existing MP image? If it's the same face and hairstyle with just this season's new kit, it's probably just an alternative.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but there's very little wrong with the existing cuts to be honest. They may be a year old, but they're still of a very good quality and most of the players haven't really changed their appearance anyway. There's little value added in cutting these at this stage...

@AlexYNWA92 All sources from the Bundesliga website are too small for improvements I'm afraid so these requests are likely to be rejected, best to stay patient for better quality sources when FM20 is released

We're not an instant cutting service. If a request has been made, just be patient and wait for it to be cut. At most, you'll have to wait 7-10 days for it as that seems to be current turnaround time. It could be a bit more or it could be a lot less, either way please don't re-request.

@AlexYNWA92 you requested this two days ago
