How do you remove the background image by comparing the images?

I'm trying to get a picture of my XBL Avatar from a Windows 8 screenshot. What I want to do is remove the background by using a picture of the background without the avatar, problem being that I don't know how.

I've attached a PSD with the image being used. It has a layer for the background I want to remove (without avatar) and a picture with the avatar & background. View attachment Avatar W8.psd

Figured it out myself. It was a little more complicated then I had hoped. What I did was select both layers and set style to "difference", save the result as ".png", opened the ".png", copied the image to the WIP and went to select the color range. Then the rest writes itself.
