Take a look at the this image. Let's say you want to get rid of the sky, or change it to a different color, because you're going to just use the mountains in a separate image. You want to get rid of that shape of blue; however, there could be bits of blue in the shadows that you don't want to get rid of.
Now look at this; you want to do something similar, select a bunch of one color, but you want all the instances of that color.
For the first instance you use the Fuzzy Select tool; for the second you use the Color Select tool.
Using each of them is simple. Click on the tool, then set the tolerance threshold and any other options.
Click in the image; you'll see what's selected. If you're happy, press Delete or complete another task on the selected area. If not, click off and reset the threshold or other settings.
Thank you for the interessting posting. Now just looking for gimp-Work...
