Roger,

The gif format doesn't support opacity - a pixel in a gif is either 
fully opaque or fully transparent.

The only web-friendly image format that supports 8-bit transparency is 
24-bit .png and IE 6 (and earlier) doesn't support transparent 24-bit 
.pngs natively and you have to use the AlphaImageLoader code to display 
them correctly in IE6

Technical Details
