Hi,

Sorry for this somewhat off-topic subject which I'm not sure where to
post -
I've FUT to off-topic.geek.


I've recently uploaded PNG file format pictures (Photoshop generated) to
BS for
the first time (I was used with JPGs).

The upload has worked well but I'm not able to see them with IE (6.0)
under
Windows XP. (thumbs are ok but pictures are black). All is fine using
Firefox.

Even more weirdness here, the first time I clicked on the link below, all
was fine as IE opened it up with QuickTime.

I've never encountered trouble with IE reading PNGs before.

Am I wrong with recording the PNGs pictures in PhotoShop (a light edition
that
comes with digital cameras)?

The gallery (yet moderated) :
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=210337

And then when I clicked here, the thumbnails are all fine, yet when I click
a pic, the pic inserted into the frame turns black!

One picture which is wrong with IE :
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/dickydidier/BuildingInstruction/Train/Plat/plat.png
(appears totally black)

When clicking this one directly, IE loads it using the QuickTime plugin, and
loads it correctly.

I'm not sure what that means, but it is certainly weird!  Do you have
QuickTime installed on your machine?


Cheers ...

Geoffrey Hyde

(...) Yes, I have QT installed but IE does not launch it when I click the pictures deep links. I guess all this comes from the png file format, the way Photoshop record them (how it manages transparencies for instance) and the way viewers recognize (...)

(...) Huh! What happens when you try this one? (URL) the BS links, I get a black square in IE, but on the peeron one, it seems to be ok. Both work fine in FF, of course.
