Problem opening an image with alpha transparent channel

There might be situations that you might be opening up a png file that was created by someone else and you have to edit it. So here's the question, how can you workaround the problem?

You have a png like the above.

Outcome when you open it using Photoshop.
There's a strange black border around the image.

So here's a workaround for it.

First click here to open up 'Photo editor online - Pixlr.com'.

Reopen and save the image as a new file.

This would be the new file that I have created using "Pixlr.com".

Now, when you open it using Photoshop, you won't be getting anymore
unnecessary black color border. :D Case closed. Happy Days...

* Click here for the official website of 'Pixlr.com'.
