    So, I've followed the instructions offered on several websites, and IE6 still is not showing my PNGs with transparency. I am not sure if it's because I am in a VM, or I'm doing something wrong, or what. I am still incredulous that Microsoft could be so stupid. Has anyone else had this issue ( that is, PNGs on a website and the online fixes don't seem to work )

    I believe IE6 was invented a long time before PNG's where. I'm sure someone will now say that he has been using PNG's before upgrading from IE5. If you have allowed IE6 to install the upgrades then it will support PNG's even if it has a transparent background. IE7, IE8, IE9 etc also support PNG's. If you use other browsers of that age. EG Netscape 4, you may also have problems using PNG's. You could use <IMG SRC=... ALT="If this image is not displayed on your browser you may wish to upgrade to one that is not over 10 years old.">

      Screw IE6 - *IE8* even has issues with PNGs... this w/end I was making a simple html page that used JQuery's animate function - the png in question has some transparency in parts of the logo, and by simply doing a fade-in and move with .animate, the logo just looked like crappy black text. No other browser had this issue ... just IE... hell, even the iPad and Android 3.2's browser dealt with it just FINE. Luckily IE9 did work without munging the transparency in the logo, but it had other issues (regarding width) that IE8 also had. *sigh*

      Sounds like a problem with JQuery's animate. I use Microsoft Photo Editor (non animate images) and Serif PhotoPlus (animate images) with IE6, IE7, IE8, IE9 and other browsers. OK with Windows 98, Windows XP and Windows 7.
