I guess this comes under here. How do you super impose a picture of a person on to another background? If anybody knows.

You open mspaint, then you open mspaint again, you take one picture, copy it to clipboard, then goto other mspaint, open a picture, then paste the picture on clipboard over that picture you just loaded :)

yes but it will have the rest. Say you have a man infront of a car. You want to take that man and put him on a beach background. If you did that in paint it would take some of the other background

If you can get it into a gif format and set the background to be see-through you should be able to do that no problem, assuming the man is on a white background and you choose the clear colour as white.

Photoshop quick-masking makes selecting a certain object in a photo quick and rather easy. Or you could take the time and use the pen tool to make a selection around the edges using short lines and curves.

No it wouldn't (as long as you cut out the little guy or he's sourrounded in white i think):

I have two pictures, a background, a image:
[img]http://www.userloser.net/images/background.png[/img]
[img]http://www.userloser.net/images/image.png[/img]

Then I copy the bottom picture over the top one:

[img]http://www.userloser.net/images/ontop.png[/img]

Then you hit the little button and it's done:

That button changes the secondary color to transparent. The secondary color in your example was white. (On the bottom left there are 2 squares, the one "behind" is the secondary.) You can change it by right-clicking on the colors in the palette on the bottom (left-clicking picks primary color).

If you have photoshop heres the easiest way:

edit: I see why you had to fix it last time grok but i dont know how to fix. just copy and paste.

Edit [Grok]: As Spht says below, you put URL and /URL tags, each in square brackets, around the URL.
