I see what you mean re: the sunglasses, but it is not at all clear
that the problem is with Arachne. I'm not making excuses for her -
it's just that sometimes the other browsers are more forgiving of
some errors (which *could* be in the .GIF) and sometimes Arachne
does it according to the rules. Of course, sometimes she DOESN'T. <g>

I thought I posted a direct comparison of Arachne vs GWSDOS rendering
for the sources.gif but I haven't seen it on the list. :((
My original comment was that the sunglasses were transparant, and you 
said NO. Well, my background is black, so they LOOKED transparant. <G>

Could very well be. Could also be an effect due to the choice of BGcolor.

I hope Jake will comment here. ;-)
