It takes a bit of photoshop (or other graphic program) knowledge. As a beginner, you'll want to learn the lasso tools in order to cut your character out of the background. Or you could do it the messy way and just use the eraser too.

Once you've cut your character out of any images you have, you are free to drop him into any background you like.

Your first step would be to get your hands on a copy of photoshop. Other graphic programs are out there, but you can't beat photoshop

After that, mess around, and if you have any questions about any of the tool functions or filters, post here or shoot me a PM.

Honestly if you do get Photoshop I think you should start off with some tutorials. They would really help you get used to the program and theres tons of them online. Also for pictures from the game...take a screenshot then send yourself mail from POL attaching the screenshot, then copy and paste or download the screenshot from your other e-mail. Of course this is how I do it because I play FFXI on PS2...
