[rrd-developers] Re: interlaced png's?

[Tobias Oetiker]

Yesterday you sent me mail regarding [rrd-developers] interlaced png's?:

*> Does anyone kow if there's such a thing as an interlaced PNG? My damn

yes and it should work ...
*> 
*> PS: PNG's kick butt. They are so small, and so fast. Cricket 0.70 will

*> the 'suck-bandwidth' flag to make GIF's, but as far as I am concerned,
*> we are never going back to gifs! :)
*> 
*> PPS: Are there any nifty features of PNG's that we should be taking
*> advantage of, now that we are using them? I'm thinking things like
*> alpha channels, etc...

alpha does not work with todays browsers, but the interlacing is much nicer
than with gifs ... as it does interlace 2 dymensionally ... 

cheers
