Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The best way is to put the extra picture or graphic in a layer below the original picture, then add a clipping mask to the original!. then, paint over the magnifier to add or remove parts of the picture white adds black removes!. You could also use the magnetic lasso tool (if there is enough of a border on the magnifier) and then paint inside the selection and it won't paint past the borders, or you should be able to drag the selection into the clipping mask and use the paint bucket tool to fill it with black!. The clipping mask is the best way to go, because if you change your mind about the image you want in the magnifier, you can always move the image underneath or delete it and add another picture in the bottom layer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

"Add new layer" > Paste (from your clipboard) the image that you want!.
Smooth out the edges with your eraser (around half opacity)!.
