Thanks for the reply to my last email.

My next question, is there any way to take an aobject that was cut out of another photo and manipulate it in a non linear fashion?

What I mean is that if I cut a picture of a cable, say a cable that connect to a tv, and I move the tv in the picture to another area and now need to bend the cable to fit where the tv is, can that be done and if so how?

I see there are lots of ways to change linear dimensions, h,w,l,etc but what about bending things that are straight into curves?

Thanks for the help

Have a look in Filter>Distort and see the shear, zigzag and spherize options.
