Interesting idea...

 

What are you using the foreground for - a watermark (e.g. logo), or an image you want to place in fromt of the model, or what?

I would like to render for example a brigde in the the middle of a photo using the front part of the image as foreground and try to blend in the new bridge.

 

I could of course use Photoshop, but that would be kind of missing the point...

That makes sense. Except for the bush in the middle center which overlaps the bridge, you can do it all by putting the foreground into the background image. (and you could just shop down the bush so they can see your bridge better).

 

By putting the river, and most of the foreground, in the background image instead, you won't have to clip out the parts of the image where the bridge obstructs the view of the water.

However, It would be a good idea, (and fun!), to add foregrounds to our background wizard.

Ok, I can try that!

But for most cases i guess i would like to use the foreground ( and background) image like a theather backdrop. 

The problem is that you almost always have to adjust both pictures (stretching or scaling) to fit the 3D-model. 

If you could manage combining both foreground and background in the Wizard, it would be great!
