Hi, I'm a Photoshop beginner and am trying to take a portion of an image, resize it and place it onto another image. I have selected the portion I need using the rectangular marquee tool, but am now stuck.

Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Once you have your selection, hit Ctrl+C tp copy the area selected. Then Ctrl+V to paste it onto a layer of it's own. Ctrl+T to transform your object. Grab one of the corner handles and drag away from the center to scale up. Towards the center to scale down. Oh! And hold down the Shift key while you are draging to do a uniform scale.
