using photoshop you can make layers and change the background. But you want to change the lighting to match that of the environment

It's a lot more difficult than you might think to get really good results. I have the lighting, Photoshop CS and have gone through many tutorials and I still have much better luck working with a different solid colored background. I try to match the background of the original photo (colorwise) to the background that I want to drop in.

This is a long process.\nCopy the image to a second layer. "Layer/Duplicate Layer"\nRename it: flower (or whatever you like)\nUse the "Replace Color..." option under Image/Adjustments in the menu bar.\nSet the Fuzziness to 100. Using the "Set to Sample" tool (the eyedropper with the +) click on the image where there is the most orange.\nAdjust the Fuzziness Slider and use the "Set to Sample" tool as well as the "Subtract from Sample" tool. You will have to play with this to get the effect you desire.\nThe Selection window will show you a Black & White image of what you have selected. Make sure the "Preview" button is selected.\nNow drag the "Hue" slider to the left until you have the pink you are looking for. This will take some practice and playing with the sliders. \nYou will notice your image start to change colors.\nOnce you have the desired color, click "OK"\nSelect the background Layer. Select "Desaturate" from the Image/Adjustments" menu.\nSelect the top layer and change the "Blending Mode" to color.\nAdd a "Layer Mask" to the flower layer.\nUsing a Brush set to Black, paint out the color background revealing the black and white background. Flatten the image and you are done.\nEasy huh? :D This is not the only way to do but it is quick and easy.

A professional artist or a really good photographer can alter a photo.  I had it done once and it looked great!

Try a programme called photoshop. It will be your greatest investment yet. Not only can you delete the background with ease using the magic wand tool you can also clone, in/out give your pics an airbrushed look and loads more.

create a backgroundpicture with adobe acrobat (1024x9000 pixel) and then use the following link:\n\nhttp://www.strikefile.com/myspace/\nreborn_3_5.htm\n\nthere you can edit your background...

First you will have to put the photo on-line where it is accessible over the Internet. Then simply add the HTML code to change the background to the picture found at the URL where you stored the photo. I did it, took 2 minutes.

~~This can be done in MS paint located in your program files under accessories.  I have made a paint tutorial that explains how to do this and can either e-mail it to you or file transfer it to you, if you would like it.  just click on my avatar, and either im me, or send me an email where i would be able to send an attachment.~~

you need a graphix program like adobe or paintshop pro, cut the head out with the lasso tool, and paste it as  a new layer on the other picture, use the eraser to clean up

Use the wand selector to select the color of the background.\nUse a fill to color in your selection to a color that is not in the pic itself, such as orange perhaps. Then you can do a reverse selection, or make the background transparent.

Assuming you are trying to create shadows onto the background of the objects you are putting.  ie. shadow of the person or car onto the background...\n\nYou have to make sure the ojects are actual cutouts.  In other words, if it's a picture of the car, you have a decent cutout or extraction of just the car and outline.  Then when you paste on the background, look at the layer menu at the bottom, it should have effects and just select drop shadow.  You can then adjust the property of the shadow (feather, opacity).

You can take pics of yourself of someone you know and put them with a different background.  Like make it look like you went to Europe or something.  Photoshop yourself into that setting.\n\nYou can also put your head on a different body or something.  It's not too difficult to do, but in order to get it to look real, you have to work hard at the colors, textures, etc.\n\nWorth1000.com has some pretty cool photoshop contests.  You may be able to get ideas from there.\n\nGood luck.  It sounds fun!

I prefer to create a hyperlink into the picture you want in the cell instead\nYou can use Insert > Function > Lookup and ... > Hyperlink to make it changed with the ID for that person\n\nand the pictures are stord in a specific folder with a sprcific mask name the hold the ID of that person\n\nXLMan

To get consistent results you should apply a stroke as follows:\n1. Open the image.\n2. Double click the locked "Background" layer and rename it.  (This unlocks the layer and allows you to edit.)\n3. Click the "Add Layer Style" icon in the Layers Pallet and choose stroke.\n4. Set your stroke to INSIDE.  Then set your color, size and other settings to preference.
