What an OG. I remember watching your tutorials for fun years ago, and I've come back so many times now because of club activities in school. Thanks, Nick!

I've always just gone through all the edges to remove the background manually, even with very detailed pictures. This video saves a lot of my time, thanks a lot!

I use this daily for my YouTube thumbnails. These methods here save so much time. Your the man!

Excellent tutorial as usual Nick. I never knew the threshold could be adjusted with up and down movements. One other thing you could have mentioned though, is that the default colors of the foreground select tool, can be changed to your liking. Eg if you do not like the blue, or if need a color other than blue, to be more visible for a particular image . Thanks for explaining these tools in such a clear and concise manner.

This was super useful! Been using GIMP on Linux since the mid-90's and I had no idea the Fuzzy Select tool was so powerful!
