Thread: The Gimp (Removing Background)

I Read Up On How To Remove The Background Using Gimp, After Adding The Selection Around My Foreground Image All I Need To Do Next Is Copy/Cut The Image (Inside The Selection) To New Template, I Tried Cntr + C (Shortcut For Copy) But Upon Pasting The Image All I Get Is The Invert Colors (Black Background, White Foreground Or Vise Verse). I Want To Create Wallpapers So Please Help.

what OS ?

as <Ctrl> + <C> does paste only on Win, on Linux i use <Shift> + <Insert>, i'm not sure what BSD uses for paste
