Also, have you done any of the TUTORIALS here, yet? (Working with various tutorials -- even if they aren't exactly what you want to learn -- can make you more familiar and comfortable with using PSP9...)
I'm not sure what kind of wallpaper you want to make. Are you interested in learning how to do a blend, for example?
As for 'cutting out people,' this is hard for everyone to do. There's no 'easy' way to do it. But I suggest you use the Freehand Selection Tool (lasso), set to Point to point -- and be sure to Zoom in, so it makes it easier to see. Start by going to Layers > Promote Background Layer. Then do little bits at a time (and hit the Delete key on your keyboard). Plus: Always work with a copy of your image, just to be safe. (smile) If you make a 'mistake,' you can always go from the 'Add' Mode to the 'Remove' Mode, by the way...
We were all where you are now when we started out with PSP, by the way, so don't feel bad! The more you use it, the better you'll get at it. (I started out completely confused -- and now I do professional graphics with PSP9.)
Be sure to check the community MEMORIES and TAGS -- there are a lot of good things there. (You might also check psp8_fun -- there are only a few differences between version 8 and 9. And I suspect there are more tutorials in the memories there...)
Good luck!
