dunno, but i do remember that one of the borders was transparent when image was .xcf, i think it was created when i saved as .jpg (as .jpg does not support transparency)
Off Topic:

beyond that, it's like you said (can't find it, but it was something like this)

Off Topic:

if i remember anymore, i'll let you know
Edit: and make sure all layers are merged down, as layers can be not included in the conversion to .jpg

Edit: i think "flatten image" was also used
Off Topic:

does flatten image do the same thing as merge down ?


Edit: the original .xcf also has a shadow border inside the transparency, i don't know how i did that
Off Topic:

i try to recreate it
