I have an image of a t-shirt and I want to fill only the background in green. How can I do this??

I tried edit>fill then selecting a colour and this fills over the tshirt image. I tried creating a new layer, filling it in green, and then dragging it bneath the t-shir timage but then bno green is seen as the t-shirt has white space filling the rest of the canvas. How can I just fill the white space surrounding the shirt in green ???


Thanks

if its just a green shirt with like a single colored background. then you can just use the magnetic lasso tool to outline the shirt then go to select==>inverse then choose to fill the selection green and bingo your background is what color you want it to be.

it depends on what you are looking at...i
you can make a selection of what you want painted, once selected you can fill it.
or you can cut out what you don't want painted the simply pait a lower layer in green.
It depends on the image itself. if you post an example somebody here will be able to help you.
