I am trying to save a png file in database using C#. Bitmap thumbnail

  • 0

I am trying to save a png file in database using C#.

Bitmap thumbnail = new Bitmap(file.InputStream);
thumbnail = ImageUtilities.ResizeImage(thumbnail, Convert.ToInt32(width),Convert.ToInt32(height)); ImageUtilities.SaveJpeg(path,thumbnail,Convert.ToInt32(Resources.AppConstants.ExtractThumbnailQuality);

The image gets saved in database, but with a black background around the image. In short, it loses its transparency.
If I skip the resizing of image, instead of black background, a white background appears around the image.

Can anyone suggest, how to preserve the tranparency of the image

    You are saving the resized image as JPEG. JPEG does not support transparency. Save it as PNG instead
