Hi ,

I have scanned a logo for a guy who's website im creating, however, he gave me some headed paper to scan to get his logo so i did and the background of the logo is dark and when i scanned it the image is very grainy. is there anything in GIMP that i can use to get a solid background?

Thanks...

What about the fuzzy selection tool, which creates a selection from a colour? Its the tool that looks a bit like a magic wand.
Click on the fuzzy select tool, then click on the logo's background area and then tweak the tolerance for the colour (in the fuzzy select tools properties) until the required area becomes selected and then fill that area with solid black (or whatever your dark colour is!) That may well solve your problem.

Cheers for now,
Jas.
