Description

Tiki: 6.1
Browsers:

  • Firefox - 3.6.13
  • Safari - 5.0.3


When I use the {IMG} plugin to load a PNG file that has a transparent background from a file gallery it becomes a JPG (specifically a "jpeg") and all transparency is lost. The image has a black background. If I load the same file from the filesystem directly using the same {IMG} plugin it loads properly.

I have created an example page with viewable source here

I am uncertain as to if this is a clue for this bug report, or if it should be a separate bug report, however displaying the same PNG from the file gallery produces a very low quality jpg representation as well. A screenshot of the image displayed through the file gallery can be access from here.
