Wrote a tutorial on how to achieve PNG transparency in IE6. Why do I care about IE6? Well, I don't, but people still use it, so, as much as I'd like to ditch it, I can't. I'm counting down the days until we can wave a permanent goodbye to Internet Explorer 6 and forget that it ever existed!

Added a tutorial on CSS Transparency, which you can find here, as I felt there wasn't enough clear, concise information out there about transparency in CSS.
