Once I have masked (cut-out) an image, I feather the edges.
Feathering is a process that makes the edges of an image transparent by pixels. This will soften the rough edges.
I use Paint.net but I know this technique is possible using the other programs. Someone else can describe the process.
Feather Technique in Paint.net
If you are using Paint.net, you will need to download and install BoltBait's Plugin Pack.

This is also free but you have the option of donating to the author.
Paste your render (cut-out image) in a new layer, on top of your background layer. Go to Effects- Object- Feather. Select the number of pixels effected and the feather strength.

I'm gonna try to see if I can do this. I really want to. I downloaded Gimp again and I selected a pic from my Photobucket. I was just gonna put some test on the pic and toss it up on TD to show you all that I am serious about trying.
I didn't quite get the hang of using text I ran outta space for what I was typing and then couldn't erase it or remove it. I just need to experiment and use the tools...get acquainted with them...and biggest thing for me now is figure out what tools to use and where that are!!
I have a few days vacation days coming up and I'll try and get something done.
later.
