How to crop out a head in MS Paint?

I'm at the school so I can't use Photoshop or anything

What I'm doing is cropping out a head to impose on another picture. I drew a line around the head, forming it pretty well, but then the selection turns into a BOX. When I impose the crop on another image, the head is placed as how I cropped it, but white surrounds it to fill in the box.

Dunno if I explained that well

Either way, is there any way to do this properly on MS Paint?

I can't install new programs, btw

It only works if you're pasting within the same picture. So just make some room at the side to paste the head into first an then place it wherever you want.

Just delete the head, draw in approximate colors in the white, head-shaped space, then paste another head over it.

I'm not too sure what you mean. Seems like you're on to something, but I don't follow.

I cut/pasted the head onto another image in a seperate window. Then I cropped the head from the white box and tried pasting it in again (w/o changing windows this time) and it STILL had the white box around it.

olimario, I really have no clue what you mean
 
You can expand the picture you are working on. It'll add a bunch of extra white space to the pic. Paste your head there, then replace it or whatever you are trying to do.
