The background function only effects images with a transparent background. Is this what you want?

[johnxy84]

Oh Yes. That would be fine. I haven't tried that yet as it wasn't in the docs. Thanks for the heads up.

I know it's been a while here, but I'm also running into this issue. Have an image with a transparent background and calling .background() doesn't seem to change anything
