 The `removeBackgroundColor` function in this code snippet is an asynchronous function designed to remove a specific background color from an image. Here's a concise explanation of its purpose and functionality:
 
 1. It takes an input image file, processes it, and saves the result to an output file.
-2. The function targets a specific color (defined by `targetColor`) and removes it from the image.
+
+2. The function targets a specific color (defined by `targetColor`) and removes it from the image, making those areas transparent.

 3. It uses the Jimp library to read and manipulate the image.
-4. The function scans each pixel of the image and compares its color to the target color.
-5. If a pixel's color is within a specified threshold of the target color, it is made transparent.
-6. The `colorThreshold` parameter allows for some flexibility in color matching, accounting for slight variations.
-7. The processed image with the background color removed is then saved to the specified output path.
 
-In essence, this function automates the process of removing a specific background color from an image, which can be useful for tasks like creating transparent PNGs or isolating subjects in photos.
+4. The function scans every pixel of the image, comparing each pixel's color to the target color.

+5. If a pixel's color is within a specified threshold (`colorThreshold`) of the target color, it sets that pixel's alpha value to 0, making it transparent.

 ### Third Party Libaries
 
-Yes, this function uses the Jimp library, which is a third-party image processing library for JavaScript.

 ### Code Example
 
 Certainly! Here's a brief code example demonstrating how to use the `removeBackgroundColor` function:
 
 ```javascript
-const removeBackgroundColor = require('./removeBackgroundColor'); // Assuming the function is in a separate file
+const Jimp = require('jimp');
 
-// Example usage
 async function main() {
+  const inputPath = 'path/to/input/image.jpg';
+  const outputPath = 'path/to/output/image.png';
+  const targetColor = '#FFFFFF'; // White background
+  const colorThreshold = 30; // Adjust this value as needed
+
   try {
-    const inputPath = 'path/to/input/image.jpg';
-    const outputPath = 'path/to/output/image.png';
-    const targetColor = '#FFFFFF'; // White background
-    const colorThreshold = 30; // Adjust as needed
-    const options = {}; // Additional options if needed
-
-    await removeBackgroundColor(inputPath, outputPath, targetColor, colorThreshold, options);
-    console.log('Background color removed successfully!');
+    await removeBackgroundColor(inputPath, outputPath, targetColor, colorThreshold);
+    console.log('Background removed successfully!');
   } catch (error) {
-    console.error('Error removing background color:', error);
