Yes
so can I only put it on the existing backgrounds in the content panel, or can I put it on another picture of my own?

If I can put it on one of my own, please point me in the right direction 'cos I am stumped:bonk:
 
Are you going to tell us what software your talking about, or shall we guess?

If its Photoshop you just select the arrow tool and drag it where you want, a new file, another photo etc..

Oops! Sorry...
Its Photoshop elements 8. Thanks, I knew it would be embarrassingly obvious! I can't seem to get the sizes to work though- once the extracted pic is on the new one it istoo large, but when I try to change it, both change in size?

oh! I've done it now, doh!

You don't change the image size that changes everything, use free transform (might be in the edit menu) hold down shift and drag a corner in untill it's the size you want then hit return (or double click) to "fix" the transformation.
