It's probably late in the piece, but I just thought I'd add that you
actually can resize just a layer, both with and without scaling (just as for
images).  Just do one of the following while the background layer is
selected (or whichever layer you wished):
- Layer - Layer Boundary Size (Crops layer)
- Layer - Scale layer (Resizes layer to scale)

John,

If you want to resize the background layer without affecting other
layers, I think you won't find a software package that does that. To
resize all layers, though:

Image - Scale image

To resize only the background, the best you can do, I think is to
paste background layer in another image, and use the option above to
scale that. Then paste it back into the original image, and remove the
original background layer (if you don't need it anymore).

Hi Chris,

By looking at your documentation, I found how to resize an image as below, 
but still looking for the feature hot to resize the background (the 
underneath layer).  If you know how, please let me know.

 Have you tried Image-Canvas Size?

 If you're new to image editing, you should probably search around for
 GIMP tutorials.  The manual is a must-read as well.

 Chris
