i need someone to Um, Like Make it into a Image That simliars the shape of a Mouse pad but also With the Same colors/Logo On this. If anyone could help i would help, that would be very helpful.
Also This might be a very dumb question But um, were is the Select tool? Like For example i slect The left side that says "chameleon" and I copy it, And paste it.. where can i find that?

the select tool is the first tool but what you want is the marquee tool which would be the second one
