    Photoshop is the only prog I know of that would do that but I'm sure it's not the only one.

    The "liquify" tool will play a key role into getting the desired results but it's not exactly as simple as that! I think it's one of the more advanced techniques.

    it also depends on the background of the image.

    Right, you're going to want to use the liquify tool and set it to "Plucker".

    That's the easiest way but don't expect great things from it. There are other methods a little more difficult for beginners and/or even intermediates.

    There's some other better programs for accomplishing this type of thing although I can't recall the name atm.
