Hi tecate. Welcome to PSG.

Why remove the guy and have a woman with half a hand missing, smiling up at blank space ? How long have you had PS? Have you ever used any other photo editing programs? Are you a photographer, a designer?

There have to be a dozen ways to "remove the guy," but until you learn just a few basics in Photoshop, there isn't much help we can give you that will work very well with this image. It's going to take more than the use of one or even two tools.

I might be wrong, but I don't think anyone here wants to give you advice that will result in you getting a shoddy result, and it is probably better to find tutorials on the internet for this until you have a better idea of what you are doing.

My suggestions are: find basic tutorials or a class to learn the basics, such as selection tools, layers and layer properties, use of text and use of color, just to get started. If you insist on working with this photo, look up selections and the different tools you can use to make selections and then to clean them up, since undoubtedly -- this being your first -- you will need to do so.
 
If you have just received the Ps CS5 and do not know how to use it, then as Clare said, go online.. read tutorials.. watch videos explaining the tools provided.. try your hands on the basic stuff first (selection, masking, color fill etc) and then move on with slight complex jobs.

Clare very rightly said that it would not make sense to remove the guy in the pic and smile at blank space.. find good tutorials and start photoSHOPPING
 
pauls image is funny and idad picture is cute. Thanks Idad thats probably the route I will be taking (background idea). Inkz thanks for the tip.
Thanks guys, I will be working on my picture and will post soon.
 
You do realise my effort was purely for ideas and not to take the mick?
