You asked me that last night and I told you, but maybe you didn't see it or something, because you asked me again today. But when you asked me again, I had to leave and I told you I would leave you a message telling you how. So this is it.

I use VERY basic programs to do it....Paint. If you have Windows, you've already got that pre-installed.

Basicly this is my process:

1. I go find the background for the poster online, googling what I need. Say I need a picture of Earth, I just google "Earth".

2. I open the images of the characters I'll put on the poster(each in their own separate windows).

3. Then using an eraser, I carefully erase the entire background leaving just the characters there, with a blank background. It's a pain to do, but it's the best thing I can do without spending money for Photoshop.

4. Place the characters onto the background.

Optional: Most of the time I save the picture of the character with the blank background, because if I ever need them again and want to use the same pose of the actor, I don't have to take the background off AGAIN.
