How do you generate an image with a transparent background?
On Higgsfield: Background Remover cuts the subject out of an uploaded PNG or JPG, or an image pasted from the clipboard, and downloads it as a transparent PNG. Shadows and reflections can be added back from a prompt.
Without Higgsfield: For print and merch designs such as tattoos, apparel, posters and stickers, GPT Image 2.5 and Seedream 5.0 Pro generate at up to 4K on a transparent background. GPT Image 2.5 generates a logo on a transparent background, and in Ideogram 4.5 adding the words "transparent background" to the prompt gives an image without a background.
Axis: ask for a transparent background in the prompt ... generate normally and remove the background
