    OK, so it is possible to reconstruct the logo simply in Xara to achieve what you want.

    The original was a png. What were your settings ? when I quickly play around with optimize photo settings, reduce the DPI size, I can only make it non-transparent again.

    Can you post the logo image here at as high resolution as you have it. I might be able to do a Vector Magic trace and make a vector (scalable) shape of it.

    I need some time to search for the original, but this is a version you could already try. Thanks.

    OK I did a bitmap trace in Vector Magic https://vectormagic.com/ I think this will work for what you need. It is a vector shape with no background so you can scale it to the size you need and add it to your web page. You can either just use the vector version and Xara will create a bitmap when you publish, or you can create a PNG using True Color + Alpha to create a bitmap with no background.

    It's not always the case that just using a transparent png ensures it's published as transparent, Xara often ignores the transparency and converts it to a jpg as is the case with joicols website.
