Open the first image

Go FILE>PLACE and navigate to the second image

Click "open" and this image will be placed on a new layer in the first.

When you resize it using the bounding box, hold the "Shift" key to maintain the aspect ratio.

As this layer is imported as a "smart object" you can keep resizing to your heart’s content using "free transform" (Ctrl+T) without degrading the image.

Hope this helps.

I have two images that I wish to isolate (from the back ground which is currently white, not transparent) how do I seperate? I then wish to amalgamate these two images into a final image.

Thanks

Use the magic wand to select the white b/g and delete (making sure you are have a real layer and not a background layer – rename to something other than "Background" if required)
