Default Need help replacing the sky

I want to take the sky from one image and use it on another image. I can do this in Photoshop Elements just fine...but can't seem to get it to work in CS3. I open both images and select the image with the sky. I then use the Move tool to drag it over to the image I want to work on. The problem is, it moves over as a very small image and I can't figure out how to resize it. In PSE, it moves over and has the "marching ants" around the edge so I can grab a corner and resize. In CS3, there are no "marching ants" on the edge. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like you problem is one of different resolutions in the images. Make sure the sky you are dropping in is the same resolution as the image you are dropping it into.

Default transform controls

If you have recently moved from PS Elements to CS 3 you may not be aware of the "Show Transform Controls" box up underneath your menu items. I suggest you check the box for that and the box for "Auto-Select." The transform controls will reveal the marching ants for you.
