How-To: Cut and Pasting a Circle Picture???

Post by NeuroPsyche »

I just downloaded Corel Paint Shop Pro X2 thinking it was as easy to use as the old Paint Shop Pro software was.

What I'm trying to do is:
I need to be able to 'cut and paste' a circle and a rectangle.

I have an original source .jpg file.
I wish to 'cut out a circle' portion of that picture.

I have another source .jpg file.
I wish to 'cut out a circle' portion of that picture and paste it into the 1st original source picture file.

The circles are pictures of peoples faces.
I need to replace those pictures with other peoples faces.

Can this software do it or should I use something else that was made for doing stuff like this?

Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!

Thanks!
Dave

Just use the Selection Tool, Circle or Ellipse. Drag out a selection over the face. Then either cut or copy. You might want to create a new layer with it. Do the same for the rest..

That part of PSP is still the same as the earlier versions, at least back to PSP9..;)
