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


OR:
Fuzzy select color tool; left click on the background to select it
Bucket fill tool; in the tool options: check fill with foreground color;
check fill whole selection
Left-lick

I am trying to get the white background changed to yellow to match
the web page. 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?
Thanks, Gary
