Same for animated versions, I guess.
We may be able to get away with not using GIFs even with transparency problems. I sent an evil patch to wml so the "transparent colour" is white not black (based on the assumption that most pages have a white background). We could possibly do the same for our images. After about 9 months or more without X I will have it back next week, which mean I can try out that theory. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.eye-net.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
