(Note that where the browser does not render the PNGs within the transparent-background table differently, the second image is not included.)

If you wish to supply an image for a more recent version of any of the above browsers or for an unlisted browser:

  • The image must be of the tables on the test page only, showing all of the PNGs which they contain;
  • It must be created in a 24-bit colour mode;
  • It must be trimmed to the outline of the table (as the above images are);
  • It must be converted to PNG format, reduced to 8bpp if losslessly possible. It may help to split the image in two (one per table).
  • The resulting PNG, or PNGs, should be mailed here.

If the browser's rendering of the test PNGs is identical to another, older, version of the same browser and that version is shown on this page, then only the browser name and the two version numbers are needed.
