 I found the comments below from a friend of mine on another 
 list provaocative. She is not a Gimp user. I wonder how 
 many of her cautions are universal and how many just 
 dependent on the program used to create the graphics?

All apps I know can do it, of course people just have to know what is
going on. Also, it would be a lot simpler if some web browsers did it
right to begin with and transparency worked in them as it should.

 However, PNG supports indexing much more advanced than that -
 essentially, an indexed palette entry in png has an alpha
 component, so with indexed png you can antialias to transparent.
 However, this isn't supported in IE for Windows. You can also use
 32 bit PNG which is funny supported on both IE and Mozilla, but
 is a much larger file size.

GIMP does not support indexed RGBA (palette items are four channels,
so all can have some level of transparency, vs typical GIF's one
colour is transp only) and dunno which tool does it. But there
typical problem is that IE does not support 32 bit PNG as it should,
that is, without tricks (some pretty complex). For simplest trick see:
