Been looking all over for a freeware program that would allow me to overlap pictures, or in other words paste a pic of someones face overtop of another persons face, just tried a program called 2 Pic, what a piece of crap that was, is there a freeware program out there that would do this that works well? What would a program like this be called, a overlay program?
Any help would be great, thanx...

You basically want a program that can handle layers (ie the main pic as the bottom layer, the persons face will be the top layer). I use GIMP (LINK) though it takes some getting used to. I'm pretty sure Paint.net and Photofiltre can both handle layers too and may be easier to work with for simpler stuff ;)

Tried Paint.net, but couldnt get the layers to combine right, going to try Photofiltre, thanx....

You missed out on the Giveaway Of The Day last week sometime because they had some program that could morph pictures and stuff like what's seen in t.v. ad's and stuff - it looked neat but I didn't download it.
Complexity of incoherent design.

This prog sounds familiar, although a forum search came up with nothing.

It's completely free if you register, and seems to have a lot of features and effects, including layers. I've installed this, and I quite like it.

If it's been on here before, sorry guys, but lost all my bookmarks recently.

Seems to be a server error with that link, although it is the right one.

Hope it comes back on.
