Information

In a similar vein to the previous opacity demonstration, this one uses png opacity, so it is not available to Internet Explorer which just sees plain rectangular photos.

Sorry IE users, I suppose you could use a transparent gif but it wouldn't look quite as good.

The png opacity this time is in the form of a square frame with a central circle which starts fully transparent and fades out to no transparency at the edges.

This is overlayed on the photograph and stretched horizontally and vertically to fit so giving the impression of an oval border.
