i always merge my layers before saving, but is this why the jpegs with transparency work on websites but the pings don’t? TIL. this is valuable shitposting news. I gotta switch over to pings exclusively

JPGs don’t support transparency. Has to be PNG or GIF.
Not sure what you are using. In Photoshop do not flatten the image. The program has a “save for web” and you can toggle transparency on and off. Better control than the “save as” and I think “save for screens”.

i was using gimp, but then i moved to paint dot net. i refuse to learn it well because shitposts aren’t supposed to look good and i’m in the “cut the magazine with scissors and glue it together to make a collage” era of photoshop luddism.

GIMPs got something like that using a plugin. Haven’t used it myself. But heard it does the trick.
