P.S.

It's coming[1]! In fact, Safari already has it.

Well, taller, not so much "larger." You'll also find taller images take up very few extra bytes, due to PNG or GIF optimization.

Incidentally, PNGs are almost always smaller than GIFs of equivalent quality - just make sure to use PNG-8 (which has single-color transparency, like GIFs). These work in any browser since Netscape 4.

I say "almost always smaller" because Photoshop adds a lot of extra gunk to PNG images. You can get plug-ins that take out this gunk. I use PNGOUTWin - there are others.

Do you have an example we could look at? Or maybe what your code was, and what it is now?
