This works for me (GIMP 2.8.4): Menu windows -> dockable dialogs -> colors; select a yellow foreground color File -> new; choose correct x-y values; Advanced options: Fill with -> foreground color
This worked. In advanced options I found that I had the color space set to grayscale. I changed this to RGB and I now have my yellow background color.
Thanks for your help. Gary

I have followed the instructions in the GIMP manual for bucket fill, Foreground Select Tool, edit>fill with fg or bg color. Nothing works. The only color I can get is black when the fg/bg option is black. In the toolbox I have changed both fg and bg to yellow. Still no change. I would like to change a new canvas to the yellow bg color and then copy and paste my image onto it. How can I do this?
