    A PNG with alpha is a 32 bit not a 24.

    You have the 24 bit for the color + 8 bit for the channels of alpha = 32. Just FYI

    I get nailed for this every single time I say “PNG-24″. I admit I don’t know all the technical stuff behind it like I probably should (thanks for the explanation), but in the “Save for Web & Devices” dialog in Photoshop (which I see like 100 times a day), that’s what they are called.
