stumps - here's a quick lesson:
take original pic :  Crop out what you want. In this case I changed it to b/w and enlarged it by 125%:  Then I found the movie poster I wanted to use:  Changed that to b/w:  continued next post b/c of 5 pic post limitation >> |

Selected the b/w John head and pasted it to the movie poster:
 That's a down and dirty lesson. On my tweaked end result, I took out the "O" in psycho and edited the background and cleaned it up with a cloning tool. Don't know if the program that I linked to for you has a clone tool. You can also play with the selection tool and copy paste sections. quick tweak:  see there is very little DIFFERENCE between the 2 end results, so you don't need special skills or tools to have fun

in this case you match the original font as best you can. I used one on my computer called SimSun. Then you use the eye dropper tool to match the original font color, and blur it a bit to get it to blend naturally with the original.
omg. I could go on and on and on. I LOVE to teach ppl how to have fun on computers. You're going to be sorry you asked stumps
