I have 2 photographs and I need to take 2 people out of one and put them into another. I did the Pen>Paths tool and outlined the one person, then copied and pasted it into the other photo. How do I make that cut out smaller to be the same size as the people in the photo. Right now that person looks huge. When I try to use the Image size it just makes the entire picture small or big... Any help from anyone.... Confused

Thanks

Glad that you got it sorted, Flexen. :) A lot of things are easy once you know them!

You can also resize it on the screen (much easier).

Select the move tool (the arrow at the top), click on the place in your image where the layer is, and the bounding box of the layer should appear.

You can then move the arrow/cursor to the corner of the layer and click/hold to resize (just like in other programs like word). Tip: hold down the shift at the same time to keep your layer in proportion.

Good luck.
