First make a new layer - take your picture layer and use magnetic lasso tool to select only your picture without the background - select inverse - delete background -deselect ! Now take your picture to the background you have chosen !

I am not quite sure what you are asking so I will assume that you would like to put a background border around your image. Go to the layers window. and double click on the background to unlock the layer. Then go to the image menu and select canvas size. Increase the size of the canvas 1" or 2" (or however big you want your border to be) Make sure you add the 1" or 2" to both the height and width. Then go back to your layers window and create a new layer underneath the the original background layer (that contains your picture). Then fill the new layer with whatever color or picture you want to create your border. Save the layered file so you can go back and easliy edit it. The go to the layers menu and flatten the image and save the final image.

First open the picture you want to add as background. Then Cut the portion of it you want to take as background. Drag it to the picture to which u r going to add the bckgrnd. First u will see only this new picture because your old pictures will be covered with the new one. Then just select the layer of the background in the layer list. Then drag it to the bottom - that is it must stay at the bottom of all the layers. Now you can see the background as well as ur picture. Try it and let me know!

That's kind an open ended question. First you can simply put your background of choice on a layer before your pic to show your pic with a border background image, assuming you did not cut the image or make the picture opaque to be able to see the background image. You must make your question alittle more detailed to be answered properly but hope any of this helps - just unsure what you're trying to achieve.

Make a new layer. Create your background on it. Move that layer to the back.
