Is there a way to make the image not loose the transparent background, ie
use something other than Flatten Image

Thanks so much for your time,

thank you for this opportunity to contribute

there is a way to expand the layer to the canvas size so you don't have that annoying yellow and black band around your image when you expand the canvas and still preserve the transparency

1. make a new layer

2. move the original layer above the new layer

3. flatten

voila!
