You open the new image.You then go back make your fixed size thumbnail,crop it>then select all, under select.Then copy that thumbnail,click on your new image and paste.You should get your thumbnail cropped image in the new image which you can then move, resize or rotate or what ever if you wish.
When you are happy with the position of the cropped image then merge layers.
It would perhaps be a good idea to actually tell us what you are trying to achieve?
If you are trying to say place a head from one picture onto a body in another then using the magic wand or magnetic lasso would be a better option.
To be honest the best way to learn Photoshop is with the
Photoshop WOW books
