This tutorial demonstrates how to remove an object's background with the Select By Colour Tool - utilising GIMP. This is a step by step tutorial and is suitable for intermediate students. It includes many informative screen captures that speed up the learning process. This is part of a series of over 200 tutorials that I have written for GIMP. Each of my GIMP tutorials is step by step and packed with helpful screen captures - so you can follow my instructions every step of the way without ever getting lost.

I have designed these tutorials so you can begin to use the tools in GIMP to immediately get brilliant results - and they can be read on your Kindle, iPad, PC, Mac, Smart Phone and Tablet.
Many of my students have emailed me over the years to say my GIMP tutorials are the best they have read and the easiest to follow; in fact, several Universities currently utilise my GIMP tutorials teaching their students on campus. Normally I sell my 200+ GIMP tutorials as a bundle, however, I have made these tutorials available for those of you who maybe just want to use a specific technique and who don't wish to purchase my full collection.
