I’m also unable to get image-edit to work.

Here’s my .ipynb:

```auto
URL='https://gist.github.com/p-i-/6e717099d712d6849dffce3725c65b90'

```

I generate an image (green ferret) then add an alpha channel, setting the top half to 0 (transparent/edit) and the bottom half to 255 (opaque/fixed). Then I invoke the image-edit API asking it to make the ferret blue.

But what I get back is the original image. EVERY TIME. I have tried MANY variations.

This is NOT a good experience.
