I didn't know such a thing was possible. I thought all image files had to be
rectangles. Seems there is always something to add to the brain memory.

Thanks.

Infanview does a good job of creating transparencies and it's a freebee.

=================================
IrfanView is an excellent freebie but doesn't have an option for making
cutouts which is what I think the OP is asking for.

Well, of course the file would still be
a rectangle but the background would
be transparent. And...the subject can
be an irregular shape.

Yes, it's lots of fun...you can make a
cutout of a person (or any object for
that matter) and add it to a different
image.

The following links are two original
images and a third image which is a
composite of the first two. This was
accomplished using cutouts.

??? In "C" there's a man standing behind the
boy. The man is not in "A"...he was cut from
"B" and added to "C". The idea was to create
a family picture.

Try this one. Just for fun...I added both versions
of the boy to the same image.

You did a great job! Love the way you moved the man's arm. Pic looks
like it's from about 1942-44. Your family? Looks kind of like my mom :-)
(I know it's not - it's the hair and the dress)

Hi Erika,

You are very observant...you are the
only person who mentioned the arm.
Even though it was just for fun...my
favorite was the twins.

And yes if you notice the border...
the originals are dated...May 1943.

The young boy in the picture is my
son-in-law's father.

Well, I fool around with this stuff too. Not that observant ... missed
the border date LOL

Very cool photo! Long story but I only have a handful of old family
photos. I cherish the few I have, and I just love old photos in general.
