I'll worry about replacing GIFs with PNG when the majority of the browsers in
use support PNG properly. That should be somewhere around 2005, given the
current rate of adoption. PNG has some really good fatures in it, but they're
useless when only a small fraction of your audience can view them.

But, since the GIF patent expires around 2002, I guess it'll probably be a
non-issue.


Have fun,
