>http://www.evolt.org/evolt_images/index.html for future ref: if you put a wee glow (like a thin black glow... or stroke if it's Fireworks) around instead of just the matting, it could look decent on light OR dark backgrounds. I do that when I have images against backgrounds that have been colored with CSS instead of HTML attributes (which is always, if I can help it). Yes, I'm I busybody today. Erika --
