Adobe Tutorial

For my adobe tutorial I choose a YouTube video that explains how to use the lasso tool and move a certain image from one pictures and place it one another.

Steps
1. Select image you want place on another background
2. Select Lasso tool (there are three different lasso tool, make sure you are the regular one)
3.Trace outline of selected image with the lasso tool, try to get a close to the image as possible
4. Use zoom tool to view areas that are either outside the outline or to inside.
5. To subtract something from the image you use option or Alt key, but doing this the Lasso tool has a minus sign by it.
6.Then around the area you went to far you retrace with the minus Lasso tool, making sure to connect back with the old area.
7.If part of the image is to far in you first make sure the Lasso tool is selected then press shift, the Lasso tool with now have a plus rather then a minus as it did before when retracing parts.
8. Start tracing on an area of the image that is place in the correct spot and then begin making your name line on the appointed  spot on the image, end the Lasso tool on a select that is in place already (just like how you started) the new selection should then snap right into place.
9.  Once the selected image is to your liking after changing things about with the Lasso manipulate functions with the add and subtract.
10.With image selected go to edit copy or command C
11. Then go to new picture and to edit paste of command V
12. Now your image from a previous picture is now placed into a new selected picture!
