if the back ground has just plain colours onit then it should be easy to do, XD Before you do anything else Make sure you go to Layers->Transparency->Add Alpha Channel then do you see the little hand next to the three colour blocks? click that then background it should be a dotted line go all the way around it. Sometimes it does’nt work properly for some reason but anyways press Delete or cut. XD
