When I’m building an email, I upload a transparent PNG, and when dropped in the email, it automatically applies a white background. Is there any way around this?

Hi
Thanks for the callout, the previous advice was indeed for our classic editor, but is now outdated since our transition to the new.
In our new editor, blocks are automatically transparent to ensure the greatest compatibility across devices and Dark Mode settings. So as long as a background color for the block (or for the Section) is not manually chosen, the blocks will remain transparent. The same goes for images as well, so long as they are cropped or fitted with it's own transparency (ex. a product image with a colored background will still appear as normal, but clipart/images without set backgrounds will appear as transparent).
Hope this helps!
