There are a few facepack styles out there already. The most popular one is the cut-out style, which is also the default style of the game for profile pictures. There's also a panini style, but it looks quite old fashioned.
For years I've been using cut-out packs, but I was feeling the need to come up with a new style myself. And then it hit me. Why not try a circular style?
It's less work than doing a cut-out and also more stylish and modern, at least for me. The way the neck is cut with the cut-out style is ugly, so after some experiments I came up with a circular style that was eventually named "scope" after considering a few suggestions from various community members.
The picture below shows how this style looks in-game on both light and dark skins.
This topic will feature all the released facepacks which should appear in our downloads area. It will also feature a list of teams registered by community members who want to contribute their facepacks using our scope style.
So a realistic goal is to complete certain megapacks by the end of summer 2012, and to be more specific we aim to make the following:
* Champions League & Europa League (EU)
* Premier League & Championship (ENG)
* La Liga (ESP)
* Seria A (ITA)
* Bundesliga (GER)
* Ligue 1 (FRA)
Quick Instructions
A video tutorial might arrive later to showcase the process, even though it's quite simple if you're familiar with Photoshop.
In a nutshell: Open the PSD, paste your player picture of choice (as a new layer), press Ctrl and left-click on the circle layer to get your selection, create a new layer via copy with the circular player face, apply scope style on it.

Our Mission
While it would be nice to eventually reach 100K pictures combined for our facepacks, that's an unrealistic target considering that only 2 people are currently working on these packs.So a realistic goal is to complete certain megapacks by the end of summer 2012, and to be more specific we aim to make the following:
