Editing programs for enhancing pictures!

Can anyone give me some advice as far as What the best editing programs there are to buy? I have Photoshop 6 now, & photoexplosion!

I keep seeing edited photos with th same person in the pic, like 6 different times! Its awesome! To try & be more clear for example, you have a person sitting in their car, then standing by the side of it, then sitting on the hood, so on & so forth! Its the same person they are just placerd all over photo in different spots! Hope that isnt too confusing!

Just wondering if I could get some advice about editing photos!

Thanks

That can be done with multiple exposures of the same person on one frame.

This thread may help.

Most people would recommend Photoshop CS3 as 'the best' photo editing program.

Not if you are taking the pictures yourself.

And why is that? I watched a photoshop tutorial on this same thing & really the only thing I need is a TRIPOD to make sure pictures are steady!

This can be done with PS 6.0. I did similar things years ago (when I was working in a graphics studio) with PS 5.5. Simply select the image of the person using the lasso tool (if he was photographed against a solid colored background it is easier) and drag the selection into another photo. Repeat as many times as needed.

I was saying you can take a photo like this without editing software, but not if you are taking them of yourself.
