Original message asked about a low cost solution for an intranet. The only acceptable format is PNG. One can expect that all users can upgrade their browsers. Most browsers are free software; other are available for zero cost. GIF will cost you at least $5000 in the license fees. See details in: http://www.unisys.com/unisys/lzw/lzw-license.asp JPEG is not good for bi-level images. > Note though that not all browsers support PNG. See: > http://www.cdrom.com/pub/png/pngapbr.html So most browsers support a simple PNG image without alpha.
