appears on the MMID image. Notice the moving dashed lines around
the hammer image. Again, you can move the new image and place it where you
want. When finished, just right click to create the new image made from
the combination of the two. As we recognize the white background
of the hammer.gif image is covering over ares of the MMID image
that I might need to be visible. Undo the operation and delet the
hammer image selection from MMID image.

Go back to the hammer.gif image
window. Make sure that the background color in the Color Pallete is
exactly the same as the one for the image (white). If it is not, click
on the "Dropper" Button
. A

as you move your mouse over the image. Move to a point on the
background of the image and right click. The background color in the
Color Pallete changes to the color your dropper just picked. Now,
