I understood in the first place, heres the problem, your original image you want for your background already has a foreground image, and you cannot remove it, therefore if you want to put your 'gun lady' on it, you will have to have the man from the other picture.

 

Think of it like putting a sticker on a peice of card, you still have the cards BG, you cant remove it.

Heres how it goes, you have to find a render ( planetrenders.com)

 

then you can use the 'magic wand tool' to erase all black/white space that is not needed, this will give you an image without a background.

 

then you create another layer and put your background in, rearrange to fit.

 

there are some tuts, its pretty simple when you try playing with it :)

 

BTW, heres why your two images wont work:

 

 

you can still see his guns.
