Re: [Gimp-user] ghost outline

[Rick Kline <rick kline ms>]

Once you make your selection, open the Select menu, Grow..., Grow selection by 1 px, click OK

Selecting areas, especially with the Fuzzy Select Tool, Select By Color Tool, etc, often leaves a border 
where the pixels don’t match the selection criteria.

Let us know if that helps.
