Do you want to paste 2 pix together or stitch them? Have you tried iPhoto (part of iLife on Mac OSX)or Adobe Lightroom? Photoshop should work just fine, as well.

iphoto doesn't do it... and I'm too cheep to pay for photoshop. There's a ton of freeware out there, I just can't seem to find one that allows copy/ paste like MS paint.

these 2 combined with my current pic. It would be cool if the car and the CROC badge sat on top of the license plate, but whatever. Any help for the poor computer-illiterate mac owner would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

There's a very good shareware program called GraphicConverter. You can download a copy at www.macupdate.com

I have used GraphicConverter for many years and love it. Whether I'm doing a batch conversion, or just want to do a little, it's very easy and they have a free version if I'm not mistaken.

Another program

I found this one for $22. It's a shareware program that I've tried but not played with too much.
It's called DoubleTake and it stitches several photo's together into a panorama.
Find it here:

Good luck,

Jeremy, nice work, I was going to drop it down on the XP box and do a little edit work, but you beat me to it.

Btw, I use the HP editor on the MAC which was bundled in with one of my HP printers which is shared on my home network. Seems to work ok. Otherwise I use Gimp. When I'm really pressed for quality I send it to my daughter-in-law in SD, she is a whiz graphics artist by profession.
