I don't know if or how much Photoshop you know if you know some, then it is easy!. You will need to open the file with the desired background and then move the picture into the desired background!. You are going to have to move only the outlines and not the background obviously!.!.!.!. It will appear in a new layer, which makes other changes easier for you any way!. also, I suggest feathering the edges of the moving photo (by using 2 px feathered polygonal lasso tool)!. It will look more natural as it blends into the background!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It IS possible to do things without image manipulators!.!.!.Though if I were to do it with one, I would make the foreground in question a transparent layer (hopefully it has a white backdrop) and place it over the background which would be the base layer!. Simple as that!.!.!.In theory!.

You need to make the white part transparent while keeping the subject opaque!. The method for that can vary, but for most accurate results, I would actually freehand select the subject and paste it into a new layer which is already transparent!. Then proceed to flatten that to the background layer!. You might want to work on the edges of the subject you cut out so it looks like it wasn't pasted!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
