Hello,

I had a problem with black backgrounds appearing on png images. After looking into the images.php class, I found a solution which worked for me.

I added these two lines at line 385:

imagesavealpha($resampled, true);
imagealphablending($resampled, false);

(after the line: $resampled = imagecreatetruecolor($w, $h)

There might be a better solution, but this works for me.

Kind regards,

Misha

I think you are right with your solution as from memory, no specific provisions had been made for alpha transparency. These were images that contained transparency, right?

There where some provisions made for alpha transparency, but only when the image is first created. Later on a new instances was created (to create the border etc if necessary) and there it was not done. The following user(s) said Thank You: JoomGuy

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
