Dillo's rendering of PNG transparency is perfect, as far as it goes. But since version 0.6.2 of the browser does not yet support background images, it has not quite achieved the same level as Mozilla or Mac IE 5. It also lacks somewhat in various layout features (e.g., centering or right-margin alignment). It does do gamma correction, however (not shown here).
