How to make Archey capture transparency

Hello all. I installed Archey to take screenshots however where there is a transparent window it just shows black and doesn't show transparency. Is there an argument I'm supposed to give other than -s to enable it to be able to capture transparency? I'm using Openbox with Cairo-compmgr for transparency.

Here are the screenshots one taken with Archey, the other with gimp which captures transparency:

Sorry about that. I'm using imageshack, but I linked to the image directly because I couldn't figure out how to post as a thumbnail. I figured it out now.

I tried running import command

import -window root test.jpg

I got the same result as Archey with the black areas.
