    DUDE! There is no such thing as “transparent color”. All applications will resolve to rendering an RGB color in transparent areas. What this RGB color is, is usually taken from a background color defined by the application.

    Further, an Alpha Channel defines the areas of transparency and opacity of the cumulative RGB channels. The RGB channels do not provide any information pertaining to transparency.

    Therefore, it doesn’t matter what color the transparent areas are in the RGB channels as these will be deemed as transparent once the Alpha Channel information is invoked.
