Hi,

I have a nice image i made in photoshop ;)
I cant save it as .gif exact as it has more than 256 colours, so instead i saved it as PNG 24, it is nice and transparent when i save it, when its imported into dreamwear the boarder around it is transparent (i have a nice pixel background so you can see it is transpartent) but when i press F12 to preview the site in a browser (IE) there is no boarder and the image is edge to edge, where it is surpost to be transparent its this **** grey stuff.

help ?

IE doesn't have support for png transparency.
Take a look at this thread:
