I have taken many head shots of a group of people and would like to merge them onto one photo, just the heads, not the background.

Any tutorials available, I am using PSE 10.

I can't point out any tutorials but I can give some generic instructions which should work in most photo editing products.
1. first you need to collect all your 'head shots' cropped to the dimensions that you want and put all in a single document each on a separate layer.
2. With all layers but the background layer turned off, create a mask for a layer (reveal all type-so you can see the picture).
3. Paint out the area that you want to keep (counter-intuitive I know but it's easier this way.)
4. Invert the mask (In photo shop and possibly PSE it's control-i)
5. Do the same for all your remaining layers and then re-arrange them the way that you want.

Thank you, I will give it a try this afternoon.
