PROBLEM FIXED!! THANKS 
tokudama!!
okay, so i have a tiny little heart in a picture that I want to put on another picture....I've set the background (which was white) as transparent, figuring i could then click and drag the little heart from one picture to the other. however, it doesn't work. My mouse turns into the little circle with a slash through it when i try to do that. At the moment I have both pictures in .gif format...I'm using photoshop elements 3.
I've already tried magnetic lasso, but I never have any luck with that...i always end up with extra white space, and then when i go back and erase the extra white space, it never looks good.
is there a quick and easy way to do this that i'm completely oblivious to?
