1. Open your image in Adobe Photoshop. On the right hand lower corner is your Layer Pallet, right click on the picture in the pallet. You want to Duplicate Layer. Dump the original layer in the trash can in the right bottem corner of this pallet.

2. Using the Background Eraser Tool (right click on the eraser tool to select the background eraser), I first stamp out the Background around the boy. Don't take the middle of your brush over the image or you will select too much. You can change the tolerance and your brush size to your liking. I set mine at 75% tolerance and the size of the brush at 180.

3. I kept clicking on the green background till most of the green was removed. You can also do this with a dragging motion in the larger area.

4. To make sure all of the green was removed I hit command-click on my Mac (Ctl-click on a PC) on the layer in the layers palette to load the layer as a selection. Then invert the selection (Selection > Invert) and press delete. Then contol D will deselect this selectuion once you have deleted all the green.

5. Now my background layer is empty and ready for one of ProBackdrops digital backgrounds.

6. I open up one of the digital backgrounds from a disk, and with the select tool, I grab the background and drag it over to my picture of the child. Now so I can see the child over the background, in the layers pallet, I just drag the child layer above the digital background layer.

7. I resized the digital background image to match the same proportion of the child by going to Edit>Transform (make sure you are on the correct layer). Now I drag the corner down of the background to resize and then double click in the middle of the image when I'm happy with the placement.

8. I'm now finished with the picture and this only took me about 5 minutes.
