Alpha transparency.
In a gif, a pixel can be either coloured, or transparent.
In a png, a pixel can be both.
IE doesn't support it, which means it shows some ugly grey instead.
Luckily, there exists some IE specific filter script type of CSS rule,
that makes IE show it like it should.
(there's bound to be someone jumping in now to explain it better and
correct my simple thinking though ;-) )
