How do I make two images overlap?

[JasMate]

I have two images, both with white backgrounds & I want them to overlap each other without the background covering the other image (if you know what I mean?). The only graphics programs I am familiar with are corel draw & paint, can anyone tell me how to do this?

Use Gimp

You can always try to use a program called Gimp. If you learn how to make layers you can do all sorts of things.

There is a program called photomatix that does this and does it well..

I've never heard of it. Did you try Gimp, or do you just use photomatix.

I also use the Adobe CS suite but for morphing its tough to beat photomatix

Wow, that looks really neat. Gimp can do the same thing, but I wonder if it's easier just to use photomatix instead I'll look into it.
