In case this is of use to somebody:
I've converted plan9bunnywhite.jpg to a PNG with transparent background.
Find it at http://www.tip9ug.jp/who/rob/bunny.html .
The goal was to add drawterm to the OS X dock with a nice icon, which
turned out to be more difficult than it should be.
Cheers
Rob

they look nice.
it also showcases the fact that plan 9 png needs some help
rendering transparent pngs. here's what page did when i
moved the image around it its window with page.
/n/sources/contrib/quanstro/badbunny.png
oddly, while reading your post, my rabbit
(not named glenda) decided to have a first
look around in the computer room.
good bunny.

delete the last two lines of /sys/src/cmd/page/page.h
and it will work just fine, as long as you are not using vnc
nor an old drawterm. it might be a little slow on local
kernels too. if anyone fixes the vnc / kernel issues
then we can delete those lines for good.

I decided I wanted to use this icon on my dock in OS X and found these
instructions. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304735 .
It would be nice if this were added programatically as the binary is
built but this will do.
