Can someone advise me of software that will enable me to take a photo from my hard drive as a background, then place the same size circles in various positions over the top.

Its for a home made table plan for my wedding.

Thanks

    Something like Photoshop or PaintShop Pro should let you do what you want.

    GIMP is good.

    I'd go with Photoshop. The full version is very expensive but it's the industry standard. However there's a cut down version called Photoshop Elements which is under £100 and GIMP is free

    However what you're taking about is more of a layout thing. There was a cheap version of Quark XPress 5 I think with a magazine recently.

    I have PS but I can't find anything that will give me the same size circle everytime.

    After you have created one circle, save it and then use it again and again.
