Courtz: If I am understanding what you mean... I would use the magic wand/lasso tool. You select this, and with the mouse gently go over the person's face.

Crappy explanation, but I hope you understood.
Since there was so many images for that wallpaper, I ended up doing it like a blend and spliting it with 2 lines. If you want a tutorial on the weird way I make blends, I typed it up a while back

Part 1
Part 2

The only things I changed were the images, and I used this texture instead

Lemme know if any part of this confuses you

Actually I didn't mean those The pics from what you did for that other person.. Was there pics of Sophia Bush, Kate Walsh and some couple - if I remember correctly And what I meant is that when I cut the background off and save it as .jpg it makes it a background.

Ohhhh All you have to do is make sure it is transparent in PSP (seeing the grey checker boxes) and just save it in .PNG. PNG has the ability to save transparencies

Edited the OP

PNG just rocks and the quality is so much better than the other options on photoshop/psp.

I've started using PNG rather than JPEG too, the PNG has a sharper look about them.

Yep I sucked at icons first, but it helped immediately when I started to use .png It didn't make miracles, but icons wasn't fuzzy anymore.

I had a batch of JPEG that I ended up deleting because they were so fuzzy and I couldn't figure out why.

Then I noticed when I was saving I had it set to "Low" instead of "Maximum" quality.
