Strange...they're 29KB in size (6K under the 35K limit on attached images). I just pulled the page up IE instead of NS and they do indeed end up blank.

Hmmm....wonder if it's a problem with IE not handling PNG images with a color depth of 4bits...

Here is one with the color depth changed back to 8 bits (increases file size to 31KB) to see if it is a prob with IE....

<EDIT> That appears to be the problem... the image below shows up in both NS and IE. It appears that IE doesn't handle a color depth of 4 on PNG format images (or the forum code doesn't identify it to IE in a way it likes). I just looked at the properties of the original images in IE (right click on the images) and they show up as "unknown", while the one below shows up correctly as "PNG". I went back and flushed the cache on NS and reopened this page and checked the original posts properties. NS shows them as being PNG as they should be and they were not cached before being displayed.

(repost of 2nd image with color depth of 8)
