I cant figure out how to put a vector IN a picture. Every time a try it the vector is behind the picture or above the picture. i cant get it in the picture >.<

I hope you guys understand what I'am trying to tell ya.

Are you trying to do this in illustrator or photoshop? The go media file is vector, is your picture file a vector too or is it a photoshop file?

So many of these types of things i find myself just doing automatic so its hard to get the steps but ill try.

If it in photoshop you go to the layers and move that layer with the vector to abo ve the others in the list..
In illy you go to the top bar click on object .. then on arrange.. and you have options to bring it to the front of the back..
you have to make sure that is the only thing highlited before you do that.

Hmm I'am doing this in Illustrator. And the picture is just a normal JPEG or normal camera file . So i try to get the vectors behind the boy/girl in that picture but only behind that boy/girl .

so your trying to get it behind something in the picture but not behind other things in the same picture???
if that so.. You cant do it that way..
you would have to take the jpeg into photoshop and make the picture into seperate layers by seperating the girl and boy from the background of the picture.. .. Its hard to explain exactly how without seeing the actual picture tho.
but sometimes you can do it with the magic wand the copy and paste that part into a seperate layer.

Oh I understand what your talking about. Hmm but When i do that and only drag the boy from photoshop. Then it gets a white background arround the boy in Illustrator it just get automaticly a white background

try pasteing the boy onto a transparent back ground in photoshop and then saving as a photoshop file instead of jpeg.. and then bringing it into illy..

It is simply arrange in front or back or in front of, or move forward or move back.
