I hope this isn't too off-topic. I'm curious as to what others think
about the question of gif or png files for icons in a Tk application.
I don't think there's ever a need to use GIF over PNG.
If transparencies are your thing, PNG does it better. If a limited palette
is what you need, it does that well. Plus you get good data compression
in the format, which GIF generally doesn't provide (or at least not in
any implimentations I've seen).
The Img library support has worked well enough for me. I haven't had a
need to try TkPNG.
