Then you can't see the current Wikipedia logo either. It is and has always  
been in PNG format. GIF has patent problems (the European, Japanese and  
Canadian patent won't expire until June 2004) and may therefore even be  
incompatible with the FDL's requirement of format transparency. JPEG is a  
lossy format. PNG is perfect for logos and screenshots. All modern  
browsers support it; Mozilla, a powerful, modern browsers is available for  
most platforms, including MacOS 9 (only version 1.21, but that's less than  
a year old):
