Our (beloved) designer keeps creating PNG files with transparent backgrounds for use in our applications. I'd like to make sure that this feature of the PNG works in "older" browsers as well. What's the best solution?

I want to allow users to upload avatar-type images in a variety of formats (GIF,JPEG,PNG at least), but to save them all as PNG database BLOBs. If the images are oversize, pixelwise, i want to resize them before DB-insertion.

The following PHP code snippet uses GD to resize a browser-uploaded PNG to 128x128. It works great, except that the transparent areas in the original image are being replaced with a solid color- black in my case.
Even though imagesavealpha is set, something isn't quite right.

I have a Dotnetnuke site where my main logo is a PNG file using transparency. I tried GIF but the quality wasn't good enough.
Anyways it worked great on IE7 but I just saw my site in IE6 and noticed that the transparency isn't working with my logo.
Does anyone know of a quick way to fix this in a dotnetnuke portal?

Hi,
I want to create cursor rsrc files on the Mac from png files. The application that uses the cursors requires it to be in a .rsrc format and I cannot change that. Does anybody know of any way I can create the cursor .rsrc files from png images.
Thanks

When using PNG files (made with Paint.NET) as background images on my web site, IE7 is changing the colors and actually displaying a darker version of my images, as seen here. In this image, the dark background and background image should be both #001122, and the medium background and background image #004466. But IE7 changes the images ...
I've seen a few fixes for allowing PNG images to have transparency in Internet Explorer 6, but I've yet to find one that also allows you to set the background position in CSS. If you use sprites, it's a deal-breaker. I've resorted to using GIF's (which are not as high quality), not using transparent images at all, or serving a completely...
I'm currently using ImageMagick to determine the resolution of images uploaded to the website. By calling ImageMagick's "identify" on the command line it takes about 0.42 seconds to determine a 1MB JPEG's resolution along with the fact that it's a JPEG. I find that a bit slow.
Using the Imagick PHP library is even slower as it attemps t...
I made a rotating image fader using Javascript and CSS to show images and unload them. I wanted to use transparent PNG's, I didn't expect or care if they looked good in IE 6, but IE 7 and 8 treated them with the same disrespect. Firefox and other modern browsers looked great. Every picture with image.filter = alpha(opacity=xxx) in it ...
When doing small icons, header graphics and the like for websites, is it better to use GIFs or PNGs?
Obviously if transparency effects are required, then PNGs are definitely the way to go, and for larger, more photographic images I'd use JPEGs - but for normal web "furniture", which would you recommend and why? It may just be the tools...
I've gotten used to the idea that if I want/need to use alpha-trans PNGs in a cross-browser manner, that I use a background image on a div and then, in IE6-only CSS, mark the background as "none" and include the proper "filter" argument.
Is there another way? A better way? Is there a way to do this with the img tag and not with backgrou...

The TImageList of Delphi 2009 has support for PNG images by adding them in the imagelist editor. Is there any way to extract a TPngImage from a TImagelist and preserving the alpha channel?
What I want to do is actually to extract the images from one TImageList, make a disabled version of them and then add them to another TImageList. Dur...
I am attempting to set up an nmake makefile to export our balsamiq mockup files to png files automatically, but I'm afraid I can't make heads nor tails of how to make a generic rule for doing so, without explicitly listing all the files I want exported.
This page details the command line syntax for exporting the files, and this page con...
I have a image upload form that should take image types (PNG, JPEG, GIF), resize it and then save it to a path.
For some reason I can't get the PNG file types to work, it works fine with JPEG/GIF and the file is copied so it looks like it's something to do with how I'm creating the PNG.
Does PNG creation in PHP require different para...
