This was a week ago so it may be moot by now, but since I didn't see any other replies: one thing you can try is different settings of Select by: in the Tool options for Select by Color. You could try either Hue (since the mortar is greener than everything else), Saturation (since the brick color isn't saturated but the mortar is) or Green. Don't forget that Select by Color lets you drag to adjust how much is selected: up/left to select less, down/right to select more. It looks to me like with that image, Green isn't working at all but Hue and Saturation both work a lot better than the default of Composite. You'll still need to clean up your selection after making it, either by copying it to a layer mask or by editing it in the quickmask. Use Levels to threshold it (Threshold handles only black and white so you get hard edges; adjusting the middle slider in Levels usually gives a better result, with gradual edges). You might also want to use Dilate, Erode and Blur, and maybe paint over a few areas that didn't work out quite right. Good luck! ...Akkana _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
