Paint.NET
If you use paint.net more than gimp, then...
press S four times, cycling through the selection types, to get the wand
hold ctrl and click the color you want to select
if it selects more than needed, turn down the bar on top ("tolerance") and try again
make the eraser really big and erase the selected parts (makes it transparent)
make big noise yay

Great explanation, thanks much, I'll do it from now on. I didn't find the 'Magic Wand' button at first though :( I got it now.
