Merging into the background
If you want to merge the edges of your image into the background, there is a very simple way to do the same in the color palette make the background color (the color you want).

Selections > Select All
Selections > Modify > Contract (try some 10 or 15 pixels)
Selections > Modify > Feather (also some 10 or 15 pixels)
Selections > Invert
Hit the delete key, repeat if necessary.

One of the background tip is - you can make the color of the background
consistent.
If you want your background color to be consistent why not save a little picture filled with only your background color. If you want to merge anything into your background, all you have to do is load that little picture, right-click it with the Color Picker, and your background color should be just right!

Quick background tile is also one of the features in Paint Shop Pro.

• Make a new image, about 200X200. Fill it with any color you want.
• Go to Image > Noise > Add...
• Choose Uniform, and play around with the amount. Then click OK.
• Choose Image > Blur > Gaussian blur...

Play around with the amounts, and then you'll get a simple, tileable background image.
