Norman,

Use any of the tools (Lasso, magic wand etc) to select yourself. Zoom in very close so that you can make a really good selection then once you have done that do Edit>Copy Edit>Paste and you should now have a picture of you on a new layer.

To put yourself on a new background:

Choose photograph with your new background on it, Double click on it to open it then use the move tool to drag the background to your first photograph. You may have to reorder the layers to get you at the top then your new background below.

Try that and see how you get on … there are a few more things that you can also do but start off with that first.

Let us know how you get on with it.

Norman,

It sounds like you are using the full version of Photoshop … and this is the Photoshop Elements forum. You really need to post your message on the Photoshop Forum.
