IE has no support for PNG transparency!

EDIT: Better one.

Argh, tell me about it. I had to do a really uglkky hack to get any kind of alpha blending to work in IE with the site design.

There is a similar thing on another forum I visit, so I know what you're talking about. Don't worry about the avatar, though. The grey background doesn't really bother me.

A weird thing is that, at home, I am creating PNG pictures with Photo Editor (just like I did with the above one), and the transparency WORKS with my IE. The version is 5.0, iirc... So it seems like the older IE does show PNG with transparency, but 6.0 doesn't? Makes a lot of sense!

Or may it be that the Photo Editor I have at home is different from this one and saves PNG pictures differently?

It may well have saved it as a 256 shade png. They work more like gif with a single transparent colour instead of using alpha blending.

Well, the Ferny in my avatar is from "Jakers! The Adventures Of Piggley Winks". Best kids cartoon EVER.
