How do I get a clean white background with GIMP when displaying items on my

You have to replace the background in your picture with transparency.
How this is done depends a lot on the picture. Experienced photographers
take the picture for that purpose, in a "light tent" or against a
illuminated/overblown white background, which can be kept (it will be
pure white) or is very easy to remove (in some cases they use a
completely black background instead).
Typically removing a random background against a random subject isn't
very easy and is rather time consuming. In Gimp you can use the
Foreground selector (that works very well in some cases) or the
intelligent scissors. Work on the original size (scale down for you web
site after removing the background).
