Transparent .gifs

When making this site i wanted it to be cross browser friendly (yes even to you IE users)
one of the main difficulties i had was with transparent .gifs which are used as a background for the text in my site.

when Googling around I found this site which had a very useful method of creating gifs out of data and this made them cross browser friendly
i don't really get the ins and outs of it but i found it works really well.

So thanks Hedger Wang
