Hi,

I guess, you mean the color palette at the bottom of this screenshot, 
don't you?


To select a foreground or background color in a similar easy way like 
GPaints color palette, do the following:
1. Under the tools palette (usually on the left window border) you find 
the color selectors: two overlapping, black and white filled rectangles. 
If you don't find them, press the d (lowercase) key and search again.

2. Click into the white or black rectangle.
3. At the upper left side of the next dialog window, click on the 
pipette register tab. A grid with a color palette will show. The default 
color palette shows a basic set of colors similar to those in GPaint.

4. Select a color from the grid and confirm the dialog.

If you'd like to have a color palette similar to that in GPaint, save 
the selected color with the little '' button in the lower middle of the 
color dialog. You can then further select it from the color palette in 
the lower right of this dialog.
You find more information about the color selection dialog at 
http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-dialogs-content.html#gimp-color-dialog.


It's not that straightforward like in GPaint, but both programs have 
different goals. While GPaint is meant to be very simple like MS Paint, 
GIMP is an advanced photo editing application.


Best regards,

grafxuser

 Please do not expect everyone to know what GNU Paint is and how its
 color selector works. Rather than naming feature, please try to
 explain what is it that they actually do.

He did link a screenshot at the bottom of his e-mail:

Looks like PaintBrush/MS Paint clone.
