Please Show Me photos done on a green screen.

I already have two lastolites dyed backdrops but I'm seriously considering investing in a chroma key green backdrop .

Please show me photos that were originally done on a green screen and then edited to white, black or themed backgrounds .

The way I was considering doing it ....
(Please correct me if there is a better way )
...Was to shoot on a green screen , remove the green in photoshop leaving me with a layer with the image on , add a shadow to the layer and then add whatever background I choose as a base layer ...., that about right ?

Thanks everyone

(I'm particularly interested in green screen to white or black )

Much better results can be had if you shoot on a background colour best suited to the subject, and then do some good old fashioned hard work with creating decent layer masks and refine edge. Chroma key is used in moving image because with 24 frames for every second of footage, you can't work in this way, but with a single image, the results are MUCH better if you do it manually.

These were done manually, using layer masks and/or refine edge in either CS5, 6 or CC.

I found green screen left too many colour artefacts behind.
