2. You want to put the text onto the footbal player image. So you first of all have to resize the football player image (but not scale). To do this activate the football player image and select Layer/Change Layer Size....
Layer Size Panel

Here you can change the size of the image. You can setup the new size or you can resize the image. Use the arrows below the preview image to setup the position of the image.

3. Now you have several ways to bring the soccer player to the text.
- you can create a lasso and drag the player to the text image. When you release the mouse button over the text image you get a selection with the soccer player. Now you can place the player and then double click on it to put it in the text layer. You can also select Layer/Convert Selection to Layer to get a new layer with the soccer player.
- you can select the layer move tool and move the whole soccer player to the text image. You will get a selection on the text image like before.
- you can activate the soccer window and press Ctrl+C to copy the image. Then activate the text image and press Ctrl+E or select Edit/Paste as selection. You will get a selection like before.
