doritobytko Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Hello everyone. I'm new to paint.net and editing in general. I want to take a picture of my father on a motorcyle and put it in with other racers so it appears like he is racing against some of the best guys in the world. I know that it doesn't sound that funny, but he will definitely get a kick out of it lol. Anyway, can somebody walk me through doing that? Like I said, I'm new to this stuff and don't even know where to start! Well, thanks in advance. I'm posting this from my phone while I'm at work. I will check on this thread at around 2 or 3 pm when I get home. Thanks again!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doritobytko Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 Here's a good place to start: Thanks. I think I can cut out the pic using those tutorials. Now, how do I go about putting the image I cut out onto another image? The one I'm cutting out is of my dad on a motorcycle only. Then I want to put that onto a picture of other motorcycle racers. Is there a step by step tutorial for that also? Or could you explain it to me (if you have the time and patience)? I know I probably sound like a moron, but I've never used software like this before. And thanks again for your initial reply..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarkut Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 If you can, get a racing background with lighting direction to match that of your dad's picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
