how to use a png file as background/template?

[fac]

I seldom visit the photography board, I am hoping someone can help me here...

I have png file and I like to add it to my girl's picture either as a background or even as a logo, is it possible?
I only have windows vista and windows 7 and no specific picture editing software. I have an epson V500 scanner which may come with some software...

You should have Paint on your computer, it comes with Windows.

Open both files up in Paint. Copy the png then paste it into the image. You should be able to move it to where you want from there and resize it so the png fits where you want it.

Be sure that when you save the new image that you do not save over your original image.

great. thanks. It was a good start. I then used GIMP to make part of the png transparent and be able to add to the first picture.

Now I have a second question...
Does anyone know how to make a template or border? I mean similar to those that we add in the photopass? I like to "design" my own border.

anyone?
