Hi,

What do you want to use the PNGs for? Your logo or the entire button set?

Regards,

If you wish to use them for your button set and would like to have them transparent background it will look wrong in IE 6.
Therefore we use gif with transparent background.
There is a jscript workaround for this though if you really wish to use pngs.
the problem is my transparent gifs looks dodgy around teh edges..... i only wanna use it for the buttonset
You need to optimize the background of the image with your background color. It doesn't have to be perfect but at least a bit better.
how would i do that in ps?
If you want to use PNG instead of GIF you can do search and replace in the template system in admincp. A blanket change of course will make ALL gifs into png and you will need to modify all the images.

If you just want certain images then of course just search and replace those.
