I've just edited one photo in GIMP to have a transparent background.

The first photo exported fine (with the transparency), however the second photo does not export with the transparency.

I'm using GIMP 2.8.16. Screenshot below.

Your link imgur.com/UvBfTlF gives a JPG with a background. That background is not single color, See it here:



JPG cannot have transparency.Someone has converted your image to JPG. GIMP doesn't by default remove the color information from the transparent pixels when exporting as PNG. So when your PNG was converted to JPG, the original background can in theory be restored.
