Sorry about Emoti-Pov png... but jpg didn't like that image (sharp
transition and near pure red, green, blue). I have no problem seeing it with
Outlook Express. Nonetheless I will mind that Netscape has some problems
with this great format. I think some programs have (had?) problems with gif
too... is this right?
Povingly,
Philippe

I have a 280*210 82k png due for upload. It has single pixel reds and
greens that are killed with lowest jpeg compression. What format would
you suggest?

PNG would probably be best for that, I don't have a problem with PNG, though
some people do.

I don't have a problem with PNG, it's an excellent format. I have a problem with
Nutscrape. :(
Stupid POS diplays them inline if they're in HTML, but uses the plugin if
they're attached, and the Edit button is grayed out for the association.

My point in the whole affair was that those who say, "Let heads roll," usually
aren't safe for long themselves.
PNG is a very minor inconvenience to me.
There are a bunch of eclectic video formats that people keep dredging up, forcing
some of us to either pass them by or slop through a bunch of bleeding edge codecs.

As they say, anything can be done. I have never done it but it could be
scanned after received for the string "anything.bmp" and erase the post.
That can be beaten if someone wants to so the right way to do it would
be to search for the identifier of a BMP type graphic which servers and
browsers already do.

Don't know about IE but NS 4.75 now handles PNG format. That is worth
the upgrade.
