Thanks...again!

Providing it is on its own layer .. make that layer active make your forground colour the colour you would like and hit alt/backspace.
Or with layer selected, go to Edit>Fill Layer and pick your colour from there.

Darn, Gary, it isn't on it's own layer. I will try copying the layer and deleting what I have on that layer...?

Thanks,
Jules

Oh yah jpeg from other thread. :)

One thing to try is the colour replacement tool or colour replacement brush.
I do recall an issue with one of them in PE4 (sorry I can't remember and I'm using 3)

Gary, I figured it out...I just created a new background layer from that layer. Sheesh. Sorry to put ya through all this brain work this time of the night - but maybe that is what my problem is. :) I have been going at this for quite a while. Break time coming up!

Thanks again
Ms. Jpeg Jules :D

No probs:)

Sometimes working on something for a long time causes you to try to hard and you lose the simpler things. :D

Jules ...

Just read you last message and it did make me laugh ... :)

One of the problems with Elements is that its just so easy to carry on working without taking a break ...
