True. Back when FaceGen was first discovered by whoever found it here and I started using it to make faces, I used to do this for individual guys. It was kind of tedious, but I would get in a groove where I would get faster and faster. I'd select just the head and make it a layer, then load up a "hair" background, one of several different-sized caps, and the top of a shirt, and position everything accordingly. I never did change pictures for team changes, though.

I eventually gave up on doing the work and resorted to using pictures of random people with baseball caps who may or may not have been real players somewhere in the world.
