    How to cut out a render. Let's get started:

    Step One:
    Open up your image, and go to the Layers window, then right click on background, and click add alpha channel.

    Step Two:
    Select the build paths tool.

    Step Three:
    Zoom in to about 400%.

    Step Four:
    Begin your path. By clicking, you add an anchor. You want to get your anchors as close to the image you want to cut out as possible.


    Step Five:
    Clicking again will get you a Link.


    Step Six:
    Do this for the rest of your render. When you get to the last link, hold control and click the anchor to close the selection ,it is important that you do this.


    Step Seven:
    Now go back to your layers window, and click on the "paths" tab. It is this one:


    Step Eight:
    Now you want to select your path, and then click path to selection. This enables you to cut your selection out of the picture.


    Step Nine:
    Now go back to your picture, and it should be flashing.


    Step Ten:
    Now right click, and click cut....Make sure you cut and not copy.


    Step Eleven:
    Go to your image you are trying to get the render into, and Right click>edit>paste....

    Your render is in your image now.

    Step Twelve:
    To resize your render, go to Layer>Scale layer....This wont work if you have already anchored your render into the image.


    Step Thirteen:
    Go back to the layers window, right click the pasted layer, and click "anchor layer".. This adds the render to the image.


    Questions welcome, may be a bit confusing.
