First of all, It would help if you told us what operating system and GIMP 
versionyou were using...
Secondly, I brought up your image in GIMP (2.10.4), and used the Color Picker 
tool(from the Toolbox - also available from Tools-->Color Picker), with Pick 
Only andUse Info Window checked in the Tool Options.RGB for the darker was: 
46/118/163, and the lighter was:71/140/186.I.E. neither one was 0/90/180.I used 
your figures in Change Foreground Color to set theforeground color to your 
desired blue.  This blue I then used to paint with a bit, and found it tobe 
darker than either one of your, um, "letters".The color picker tool confirms 
this new stroke to be 0/90/180.
I changed the foreground color to white and made a stroke, and then broughtup 
the Color Exchange dialog (Colors-->Map-->Color Exchange).I clicked on the 
color picker button opposite "To Color", and whenever I picked one ofthe three 
blues (two of yours, one of mine), the stroke changed to that color...(As I 
don't know what "Threshold" does, except that it seems to be a percentage, 
with1.0  being 100%,  I didn't fiddle with the numbers any.)
I think you need to give more detail in what you did (including explaining what 
you meanby "all the black pictures", and "to a blue selection") to get the 
result you got...

Hi I have an Image that that I need to change can you please assist me in doing 
so.


1)  I have to give it a spring theme, so the autumn brown red background 
needs to change to a more green lively color.

2)  Secondly ALL the write writing beneath the image and the smaller images 
beneath need to be taken away.

3)  Thirdly just some things needs to be changed in the writing on the 
barrel or main symbol in the image and then the words on top.

Please can anyone help


Hard to tell without the image. From past experience:

1. people spend a lof of time trying to edit rather simple images
   instead of recreating them from scratch which can be easier, faster,
   and will usually give a much cleaner result.
2. given the amount of text you mention this is likely a logo, and
   these things are best done in a "vector graphics" application such
   as Inkscape (the JPG/PNG/GIF you have is just an export, like a PDF
   you would produce from a .DOC). And unless you can get the original
   vector file, you have to do one from scratch, which makes item #1
   all the more valid/
