This might be slightly off-topic, but could you explain how you did
this? We'd very much like to be able to avoid GIF as well, and PNG
sounds like a good alternative... (I'm kind of surprised that java only
supports GIF and JPG in the standard JDK - even in 1.2)

PS: we have already considered JAI - but I think that is kind of
overkill for just loading images in PNG...
