I don't think PNG is supported in most things at the moment, most likely not Ikonboard 3. The makers are probably better people to answer the question.

 

[Zziggy00]

It's probably supported by more things than you think; the 1.0 spec is about six years old, and most of the high-profile graphical browsers have had at least basic PNG support for a while now (alpha channel support seems to be the biggest weak spot). The latest version of a hugely popular piece of software not even recognizing PNG as an image format is pretty ridiculous.

Which is a shame, the alpha channels look so much better than transparent GIFs.

Seeing as ~95% of people browse with IE, I guess it's a matter of when Microsoft will (if ever) decide to support it..

More than 95%. Yeah, MS is fucktarded about PNG support. I want more than 1-bit transparency. I want it with whipped cream. All on a nice redhead with a cute ass. Yeah.....

Yeah, they are. Although I think if they started offering nice redheads, All would be forgiven, Microsoft
