ok, on programs such as paint.net, photoshop etc. i get annoyed trying to select a certain part of that picture. is here a way i can just click on that part of the picture to just get that
for example: in my avatar theres a gliscor with a background and my name. is there a way i could just select the gliscor part by clicking on it?

Generally, more advanced Image-Editing tools such as Adobe Photoshop use something called Layers. Layers allow you to only edit one part of your image at a time. So your Background would be it's own layer, Text would be it's own layer, and the Gliscor would be it's own layer. By selecting only one, and then taking a tool such as the paintbrush, the effects of the paintbrush will only appear on the selected layer. To do this, while creating an image make a new layer for each thing you paste in. This is sometimes done automatically, depending on your version and settings.
