If you are on a Windows platform use IE, if you don't want IE, use Opera 5.x both support png format and are compliant with CSS and the W3C standards. Linux users can use Opera, I have not tested it on Linux, however if it works like it does on Windows, you're golden. If you use Netscape because of some deep seeded hatred for IE/Microsoft/Bill Gates or are just unwilling to change, well then suffer. Not using superior tools when you can is your fault. To users of UNIX on platforms such as Sun, SGI, etc.: Netscape is still part of the "browser wars" because of you! Put pressure on these people to pressure Netscape into adding support for the latest technologies. The HTML 4 spec is 4 years old! How long has CSS1 and png been around? I feel for you, I really do. My guess is that most of you would change if you could. My big problem is that somewhere a line has to be drawn between specs, ease of development and who can see your stuff or how they can see it at least. I hope that I did not offend anyone, it was not my intention. -- Jeffrey D.

I don't want to initiate a Browser compatibility flame war. But is it necessity to bother all zope.org visitors with that zopelogo.png ? Please have a look at your User Agent statistic. There are many users who are using Netscape 4.x. This browser is unable to render transparent png images in proper style.
