PNG-8 is different from PNG-24. PNG-24 is the file format for alpha transparency which IE6 can't display. PNG-8 uses "binary" transparency similar to a GIF and does work in IE6.

PNG-24 allows you to create semi-transparent backgrounds (like a 10% to 50% opacity gradient), PNG-8 does not. The image you linked to above does not need a semi-transparent background.

Yeah, what's the difference between Photoshop and Photoshop Elements? I really like Photoshop, we have it at school and I use it a lot. My dad said I could get it, but it's really expensive so he wanted me to find out if Photoshop elements were good. What does it let you do? Have a nice day.
