On checking, PNG format allows for transparency. You can convert almost 
any image to this format with Irfanview by saving it in your choice of 
format.
   
  John,
   
  I  used Irfanview to change a   gif extension to   a  png  extension. Then I 
changed the content.html file to the png  extension. Both content.html  and  
the png file was  uploaded to the  FTP  site. .  Now  there   is no arrow at 
all. I do not think  the Web displays  png  on  the web. -  Gerald
