How to cut an image out of one photo and paste it onto another photo

I'm new to Photoshop Elements, and I don't understand the terminology well enough to get help to do this simple task.  Any instruction would be appreciated.

Alright, this isn't too hard.
First off, open the photos.. After that, you'll want to use the selection tool (most will work) to select the place you want to allocate.
After you've done this, use the copy command to duplicate it. Go to the other photo and paste .
If you need to reposition or resize, use the move tool.
I once had a project I needed to do this. I had to take the two wooden front doors of a picture of an early picture of a model home and put them on the newer picture for work. I did these same steps, they should work for you!

  • How do I cut out an image from one photo and paste it in another photo?

    Help!  I did use the scissors and eraser tool to cutout unwanted background, and now I have an image I want to save and copy to another photo.  The problem is that Elements 11 won't let me open up another photo at the same time, or let me copy the selected image to clipboard to paste on a different photo.  Adobe's  info. on how to do this seems to be sketchy.

    Try this:
    Open photo B, the one that you want to add an object to. Minimize this.
    Open Photo A, and using one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, make a selection of the object that is to be transferred to B. You will see "marching ants" when the selection is complete.
    Go to Edit menu>copy to place the selection on the clipboard
    Go back to photoB
    Go to Edit>paste
    With the move tool, position the object and resize with the corner handles of the bounding box.

  • I want to cut out a head from a photo and insert it into another photo again. In the head hair flying in the wind and the blue sky can be seen between the hairs. This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo.

This blue sky I want to remove, so I can only use the head with hair flying in another photo. Is it possible to simply delete this blue color of the sky?

    Make your selection and then use Refine Edge.

  • Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?

    Can you edit a person out of one photo and add them to another photo?  Like if you need the head shot from one photo to replace closed eyes in the other photo?  Thanks.

    Thank you very much!  Does this require software to be purchased?  I'm new to Photoshop.

    Subject: Re: Can you edit a person from one photo and add them to another photo?
    Welcome to the forum.
    Yes, this is done often. You will need to create a Mask of that person, to separate them from the background of the original Image.
    I like to do this with a Layer Mask, as it offers control, and really does not alter the Image, so you can go back and make changes.
    Let's say that you have Image 01 w/ the head of your subject, and want to place it into Image 02. In Image 01, make a rough Selection. I would include a bit of extra background, as we will take care of that in a moment. With that Selection active, Copy the head shot. Go to Image 02, and Paste it. It will Paste in its own Layer. Ctrl+T (Free Transform) can be used to Scale and also position that Layer with the head. Once you have that Scaled and positioned about where you want it, create a Layer Mask. In QuickMask Mode, just paint in the additional Mask to remove all traces of the background that came in with the head shot. As you can paint OUT, and also paint IN the Mask, you can work on this, as many times as you wish - even next year.
    For getting that Layer Mask looking good, work slowly, also see this http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/photoshop/l/blrbps_5agirl.htm.
    I've got another tutorial, that addresses the hair area, and will post that, when I find my bookmark.
    Good luck,

  • How can I export images out of LR3.5 and have the file numbers watermarked on them?

    Ladies & Gents,
    I'm trying to export a large number of images out of LR3.5 and want to show a unique reference number on each one as a watermark, so that customers can easily state which photo they're interested in.  I can't find anything on the export settings of the software with the exception of copyright symbols etc, but this just puts the same watermark on each photo and I want to number them individually and make it easy for the customer to identify an image.
    I'm guessing there will be a 'plug in' to do this and I don't mind paying for it, I would just rather do everything in LR and not have to then use a second piece of software and re-export all the images for a second time.
    One last thing..... I'm thinking of upgrading to LR4 in the near future and so I would like to be able to use any suggestions on that platform as well (if possible)
    Many thanks,
    Luke

  • How do I take one photo and add it onto another?

    I want to take the photo of a cheque, and add it to a photo so it looks like the person is holing  a large cheque (from shoes to waste sixed cheque)
    All assistance appreciated
    Kiwidreaming

    Easy Photoshop task:
    Open both check image and desired target image in Photoshop
    Switch to check image, trim out background stuff (possibly making sure the check is on its own layer, to ease background removal)
    Select all (control-A), copy (Control-C)
    Switch to target image
    Paste (Control-V) - This will paste the check image into a new layer of the document
    Re-size / transform (Control-T) - This is where you'll be able to tell if the check image was high enough resolution, and if you need another image
    Since the target document will have the check on a new layer, it gives you plenty of freedom for other corrections, adjustments, etc.
    There's a few other shortcuts to achieve the same effect, but this 'feels' the most straightforward.
    Cheers!

  • How can I copy a row from one sheet and paste it in a column in another sheet?

    I would like to copy a row of numbers from one sheet and paste it into a column in another sheet.  Is it possible to do this with numbers?

    Hi Dennis,
    Numbers doesn't have a built-in Paste Special > Transpose the way you have in Excel.  However, there are ways to do this in Numbers that are not difficult. 
    Here are two ways:
    Approach 1:
    Select the row of numbers, and command-c to copy to the system clipboard.
    Click on the canvas and command-v to paste, automatically creating a new table.
    With that new table still selected, in your menu choose Table > Transpose Rows and Columns.
    Select the cells in the transposed table, command-c to copy, click once in a cell of the destination column of your target table, and command-v to paste.
    Approach 2: (after a quick installation, very similar to Excel's built-in Paste Special > Transpose)
    Download this Copy Transpose Automator Service, and double-click to install (if necessary choosing Open Anyway in System Preferences > Security and Privacy).
    Thereafter to use just:
    select the row of numbers you want to copy
    with the cells still selected, choose Copy Transpose from the Numbers > Services menu
    click once in the destination column and command-v to paste the transposed values.
    Note that the second approach does not handle cells with formulas, whereas the first approach will.

  • How to make a selection in one photo and move it to another photo

    I have always used Photoshop Elements, from 7 up to 12.  I just bought Photoshop CC.  I am totally confused over it.  There's not photo Bin, that is where I use to drag from the open photo down to the one I wanted the selection in.  I tried doing it
    by making the pictures smaller and dragging them down to the bottom, but then things got messed up and every time I opened another photo to use it open on top of the previous one.  To me this is important as this is what I have done
    in Elements all the time.  I can learn the other stuff about Photoshop later, but this one thing is important to me to be able to figure out.  I make pictures for people who have lost their pets or for birthdays and use a lot of digital scrapping stuff in
    them.  It's always been easy to do so, but now I am totally in a daze over how to do it.  Always wanted Photoshop, but I only have 30 days to decided if I like it and if I can't figure this one thing out I will have to return the program.  Can someone
    point me in the right direction for some tutorials on how to do this one thing?

    Oh,  and I'm not sure what you mean Load Files into Stack.  ??????
    In the menu Edit there is an item Scripts and there is an Item Load …
    If you want to rescale, rotate, … parts of your composition you should work with Smart Objects.
    So see if Photoshop > Preferences > General > Palce or Drag Raster Images as Smart Objects is checked and then use File > Place to put the elements into your layered file.
    Whenever you need to adjust one select it in the Layers Panel and invoke Edit > Free Transform (cmd-T).
    The advantages of Smart Objects are numerous:
    • multiple instances of a SO in a containing document that update simultaneously on saving an edited SO (please note that for a SO to maintain a connection to the external file one needs to use File > Place Linked instead of File > Place Embedded )
    • the possibility of placing vector content as Vector Smart Objects (though this will output as pixels)
    • non-destructive application of Filters
    • non-destructive application of transformation, warp, puppet warp (not all of these are available for Vector SO, but by converting such a one to a regular SO they become applicable)
    • combination of elements of different color spaces
    • the ability to Replace Contents of SO (for example when faking as-of-yet non-existent products by mapping packaging design elements onto images of a blank container and the design is likely to change)
    • Stack Modes for certain combinations of photographic images
