After making some changes to the Professional Theme for my site I discovered that my site logo looks strange in Windows. It has a light blue background instead of being transparent. It is a standard png file. On a Mac it looks fine.

Suggestions to fix this? I've gone through the code and can't find my mistake.

It's not a mac/windows/linux problem.
It is microsofts Internet Explorer that can't handle pngs proberly, Firefox and opera has no problems with it.

IE only has a problem with 32-bit png files. If you save it as 8-bit, you'll be fine. See an old post about it here:
