well, lots of the edges are rough or have a tad of excess background visible.

my suggestion since it looks like you're using the lasso to do cuts (like myself) ---

always make 2 layers of the original. once you're done cutting the top one, go back and use the elliptical tool to round off specific areas (like the football).. you do so by placing the elliptical tool on the original and copying, then pasting on the top layer or cut... this is how I end up rounding off edges

actually, i used the pen tool originally and then was using the eraser to cut off backround. so i don't know if that would work using the method you suggested.

Zoom in to about 300% then just go along the edge making many points with the pen tool. Don't be afraid to cut into the player a little bit (not to much) to make sure you get a clean cut.

I already told you what to fix at Custom-GFX.

Pretty much just make it smoother. The helmet and facemask are choppy and there's BG on his shoulder.

Also, don't post it with the effect on it. Post the original pic.

That's what I was about to say too. It would be hard for people to use with effects already on it.
I'm assuming he just made a mistake. The one he pasted on the Custom-GFX forums said something like (....copy2.png) on the website it was hosted on, so he probably uploaded the wrong thing.

BTW, it's good to see you again lol. We thought you died or got sick or something.

I have had trouble with the SI uploader, so with Jarrod's permission, I'm posting it from my Photobucket account......
