So 50k to cutout a render & do a jersey / logo swap? That's almost half the work that goes into a signature, pay seems super low.

Was thinking the same.

Any additional benefits like free or discounted packs perhaps? Wouldnt mind to help out, but had the same initial thought as NJBA

Cal should put it into the job description. The base set is a template where you swap headshots. No jersey swaps or anything

@NJBadApple @OrbitingDeath

I'm a dumb liar, it's actually 100k per card. I apologize for that, fixed the job posting, thanks for bringing that to my attention.

I must be doing signatures wrong

For those of us that don't have and don't want to install Photoshop I want to give a shout out to https://www.photopea.com/
It's a free web-based photo editor that can handle PSD files. There might be some cases where Photopea can't do something that Photoshop can. But when it comes to card creation I think you'd be fine.

Well you're definitely fantasy drafting wrong (it's your turn)

Glad someone put this up because while it happens....telling people to PM someone about photoshop (nudge nudge wink wink) sounds shady-ish and I'd hate to have that linked to the SHL.

Also, gimp works well for simple stuff like this and its open source too.

Well, the template is specifically made for photoshop. Like idk if you can open up the template on those 2 things

Gimp reads and writes psd files.  Its how I do some stuff at work (on gimp) when I'm not at home (on ps).   I'll gladly take a sample template and see how it works in gimp if they want, just for the sake of science.
