All the time!

I find good pics and have to "build" an extra background for them using the source image.

Examples:

Right side is fake. I wanted to get very close to this pic, but I wanted enough of the guy in the sig to see the expression.

Right side is fake. The Saint had a wing and it was screwing up what I wanted to do with the text.

Typically, I don't want to spend the time to work with it so much, or I think it will look better with a cleaner back... I'll just fade the current background into a new expandable one like thus:

Good source images are hard to find sometimes...so occasionally you have to make them!
