What is it called

[Ksmnms36fan]

when you cut an image out of one picture & paste it into another? Can you download an image from the internet, cut out the part you want, & paste it into a pic? Any sites talk about this & how to do it? This is a great site & I'm really trying to get into digital photography. Learn about shutter speeds, exposure & such. I have a Sony MVC CD400. I really like this camara. Thank you for any help. :shock:

Of course you can. First , you have to learn how to use a photo editor.
Photoshop (from Adobe) is a good one, but may be to much for you if you are a beginner.
A good idea is to try a simple one . I still use my first “PhotoDeluxe” version 1.1 that came with my scanner or printer long time ago.
Take a look here:

There are also freeware, shareware also ( I don’t know which ones are good)
Current version of photo editor usually offer a 30 days trial version ( Adobe photoshop, Adobe Photo Elements, Ulead Photo Impact) you can download from their website.

You might like to consider copyright aspects before you do what you describe.

Thanks for the replys. I figured it was called cut & paste, but I figured there was more of a technical word for it. Cut & paste is easier. I was going to use pics that I took myself & maybe one from the net to print & give to my mom.
