Is there any way that P5 can support png images and their delicious 8bit alpha channel?
1bit alphas from gifs are just so lo-fi style. wich is nice sometimes. not alltimes.

PNG will probably not be supported directly this very soon, however i started to play around with some alpha channel imaging functions here
this functionality (with proper syntax) will be implemented in one of the upcoming releases, so stay tuned!

the alpha support (for images of type RGBA) is in fact full 8 bit, it's just that we don't have anything in there to do .png file reading. in a future release you'll be able to drop in your own png.jar with the library so you can add png import to your own apps. but we prolly won't support it since it's an extra 100k that would be attached to the (already large) export size of the applets that are created by p5.
