I'm now at home, I'm using Photoshop CS3 at the moment, but when I convert my image mode to RGB 32bit, I don't have the option to save it as a png file any more ... only in 8 and 16bit, and they both look messed up in IE ... So what's up with that?

I usually save it as jpeg. I think it would support transparency.

Under 32bit's save as options I only have the following ...
    Photoshop (PSD)
    Large Document Format (PSB)
    Open EXR (EXR)
    Portable Bit Map (PBM;PGM;PPN;PNM;PFM;PAM)
    Radiance (HDR;RGBE;XYZE)
    TIFF (TIF;TIFF)


JPEG only works under 8bit and doesn't save transparency ...

Yeh, PNG transparency doesn't work in most IE browsers.. ;) GIF is usually the thing to use for all browsers, but I'm kinda' like you.. I can't get the thing to look smooth.. :p If you go to Save For Web, there should be, in the options of GIF, a drop-down menu that allows you to choose an exact properties type of thing.. Don't remember exactly what it's called or how to explain it to you, but it basically makes it smoother. The only thing about it, you have to have a matte with it..

Ok, check the image below. Does it work?

If it works for all of you, than I'll post the tutorial on how I made it. If it doesn't work, than who cares about that tutorial :)

That was made in 8 bit color.

The image you posted works in FF, but not in IE, in IE it has a background colour (white) and in FF the background is transparent ...

Code: [ Select ]
<html>
<head></head>
<body bgColor="red">
<!-- This DIV is the target container for the image. -->
<DIV ID="oDiv" STYLE="position:absolute; left:140px; height:400; width:400;
   filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
   src='http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/i937855_transparent.png', sizingMethod='scale');" >
</DIV>
</body>
</html>

  2. <head></head>
  3. <body bgColor="red">
  4. <!-- This DIV is the target container for the image. -->
  5. <DIV ID="oDiv" STYLE="position:absolute; left:140px; height:400; width:400;
