If you've got IE5 running on the Mac, go to this site: http://www.panic.com/audion/faces.php If you click on the little magnifying glass icon, a preview of the face (skins for the Audion MP3 player) appear...with full transparency and drop shadows. What a great use of standards! You can go look if you're running something else...it would be interesting to see what happens. In IE6, transparency for PNGs isn't supported (at least not in this manner) so you get a gray background. -- Boris Mann http://www.bmannconsulting.com
