 Dear All
 I have upgraded from centos 5.6 to centos 6.0 to have all of the
 features of GIMP. Can you please let me know how can I change my
 image
 background by using GIMP ?


 It all depends on the background. Color to alpha is ok if it is a
 uniform background.

 Other tools include the foreground select tool, the free select tool
 and the quickmask to adjust your selection.





 Thank you very much for your help. I am new to GIMP , so where can i
 find more detailed illustration on how to use your mentioned tools for
 my specific purpose (changing image background)?





See the gimp site, http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/ and look at the
intermediate tutorials
