Copy and paste chocolate fountain

Hi,
I want to copy our chocolate fountain in one .jpg

Then paste it into a different .jpg.

I can't copy it smoothly using FREE SELECT.

It is on a dark background and I get a great selection using SELECT BY COLOR.

Then I am stumped. How do I change the selection to reverse and select the fountain instead of the dark background?

Please write. I just cant figure it out after 2 hours of working on it.

Sincerely, Harry

Menu Select > Invert should do the trick.

If I understand you, you have the background selected (excluding the fountain), but you really want to simply invert that selection so the fountain is selected. If so:

Select|Invert

Anywhere we can see this chocolate fountain to see what you are talking about?

Ctrl + I inverts the selection

Alternatively go to Select->Invert
