Since we launched this almost a month ago we have been inundated with feedback, mostly good . We have also been receiving close to 4000 visits a day, seems there is definitely in interest in this technology, for good or bad!

A few thoughts have come to my mind, perhaps we need to consider campaigning apng’s within the open source community as well as web designers/developers. It would be interesting to see if this technology will be adapted by software like Gimp and Inkscape. Imagine a built in apng tool that would allow to optimize, sequence, and assemble apng’s.

I would also like to see how creative we can be with apng’s without over doing it, which seems to be the biggest question on peoples minds. I think if we can keep file sizes down and implement apng’s in a useful way, like navigation, simple ads, interface design, logos, etc., then perhaps there is a chance that other will begin to adopt and take advantage of this technology.

Let’s face it, png’s are better than gif ‘s, so why are we sitting on the fence?

So, for those apng enthusiasts out there, let’s spread the word and see what happens.
