Hey, everyone.

Can anyone recommend a decent paint program for Mac that will do alpha
channels for PNG graphics?  Corel Photo-Paint 8 won't.

I am not sure, but I think GraphicConverter 4.0 supports them...

Yes, GraphicConverter may work. Or you could try PhotoShop LE, if you have
some money to burn.

If you have Mac OS X, you can get the GIMP, which is like an open-source
(free!) Photoshop.  You'll need to use Fink (fink.sourceforge.net it's free)
to download and install the GIMP. After you've downloaded and set up Fink,
open a terminal window and do this:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gimp

Good luck!
