red background instead of a transparent background for butto

[hknight]

Hello,

The following creates a 3D button. The button HAS to be a jpg (not a png).

The problem is that because the corners are transparent, when the jpg is made they turn black.

The background needs to be red. How can I make the button have a red background instead of a transparent background?

Thanks!

   ....   -background red -flatten  image.jpg

See IM Examples

Which is referenced from Common Image Formats,
JPEG transparency - NOT

That should have been your first point of call!
