How to find transparent images on Google search
One way to spot a transparent image on Google search is to see if it has white and gray checkered background. But keep in mind that not every image with a white and gray checkered background is a transparent image specially if its in JPG or JPEG format.
It is a known fact that JPEGs don’t support transparency. So if the image you downloaded is JPG then its not transparent and you might have to click the image link to download the PNG format from source.
One example is this image above which looks like an innocent transparent image but actually a JPEG.
To download the transparent version you will have to click on the link to the page where the image is hosted
From there you can click to download the original PNG version which is transparent.
