If you want to make a avatar or a tag then you have to get photoshop.
Here is another link where to get a photoshop:
http://www.adobe.com/products/tryado...jsp#product=39
click on photoshop elements, it was made for beginners like you.

Now if you want to get good at photoshop then i suggest to go to this site:
http://www.good-tutorials.com

i think thats all you need to know.
Ps: the main thing is don't rip, meaning don't cut out something like a background from another person's work.
Thats stealing and its wrong.
Peace Out Bro....
