How to change colour of background on a photo

[Matamata]

How do I change the colour of a background on a photo. I have Adobe and Picasa installed on my computer, also Camedia.

Do you have Adobe photoshop ?

changing the background isn't a problem ... the problem is NOT changing the foreground.

there are a couple of ways of doing it ....
by selecting an area and filling it with colour ...
you will need to be careful ... but it's fiddly not difficult.

the second way is by adjusting the hue and saturation
(this is how you can see the same car in a range of colours on the web.
the but here ... is you still nees to select the area to affect

easiest is a square building ... hardest is a tree in autumn
(both will still end up with a line round them (just like in starwars!)

You could take the photo again in front of a different coloured wall.
