Help a complete moron out here.

alright when you hear the question you will understand.

I am new to photoshop and looked around the tutorials in the sticky but didn't find an answer to my question, prolly cause its too easy, but i am still not aware on how to do it.

I want to know if there is a way to take a person out of a picture other then using the laso icon and going over it ever so slowwly. Bare with my slowwness. I am just very stupid, an answer would be very appriciated.

You could always use Extract...It's kinda like the lasso, but...easier...I guess... I'll give it a look when I'm at home and I'll let you know in more detail. School computers dont have it

Edit: For tutorials, go to www.good-tutorials.com

I dont recommend using the lasso tool because of the irregular shapes that are cut and you may end up messing your image you want to cut, here is my alternative solution.

-Create a marquee around whatever image
-Cut and paste into a new file
-Erase sections you don't need
-Cut and paste to whatever
-Use magic wand and delete the white pixels from the layer
-Move to spot

NOTE:Zoom in (Ctrl +) to about 300-400% view to erase the pixels near your border of your images. Try different eraser sizes but use size 1-5 for the zoom in.

Don't worry if your slow or new to photoshop Static, WE ALL WERE (even me ) so just PLAY AROUNd with the program and see what happens
