    Hello,

    there a several ways to add an image into another image:

    1. Open both images

    2a. With the move tool move image 1 into image 2

    2b. Use the command Select all from the Selection menu, then move the Selection into the other image

    3. Either way, the new image will appear as a new layer in the layer palette.

    Hi chastityg78-

    Welcome to the world of Photoshop.  What you might have gathered from the previous responses is that with Photoshop there are many ways to add an image, so it would be helpful to refine your question to be a specific as possible.  Best

    I suggest you do some introductory Photoshop tutorials to get familiar with the basic tools & terminology first.  As your skills & confidence improve, then tackle more advanced tutorials on Layers, Masks and Compositing.
