yea ive worked on a couple pics from it but they get so many responses i dont even know whether they look or not. Cause the only way I know how to post pics on forums without adding it to my port is by uploaded it to mediafire and giving the link but then I never know if they take the time to click the link. Is there a way to show the actual picture in a forum without having to put it in my port? If so tell me please lol

Just upload it to photobucket or picasa to show it in the forum.   I do a lot of photos sometimes I get a response sometimes not.  I am like you I just practice.

Hey fair effort for someone who just started
You need to erase around her hair though where its jagged and you can see the old background... or 'feather' when (or after) selecting to soften it. Good luck

Not bad.  Replacing backgrounds are tricky (for me) .   Couple of things to consider.  With the hand on the tree use some bluring you want to create some depth.  Most likely in real life that hand would be slightly out of focus.  It would also help in blending it more.  And when you are cloning to adjust the blending of the two dont use the "hard" brush feather it more.   The hard brush is good but can also be tricky to use in some situation.
