Transparency preview in gpt-image-2 is discontinued. Gpt-image-2.5 family has more robust transparency support. Even sending just the background: transparent parameter will cause the model to find some use of transparency even if not prompted. Same costs when you remap the three prior quality value enums to the five expanded ones.
