   No, you don't have to save it as a PICT.  Using standard editing features,
COPY it out of the paint program you are using.  Then, just PASTE it into
a PICT file  in RESEDIT.  Then, you can use the lasso or whatever other
selection tool to get whatever size that you need.

      If you've got a bunch of PICT's, and you don't really have
a lot of memory for multifinder, don't forget about your scrapbook,
I always seem to. :-)
