My experience is that you can, as you say, fake PNG in image resources, but if you have older pre version 8 clients that will always crash the clients.
Yes it is very annoying the Notes client 8.5.x does not support properly, IBM fix it!

From what I hear, it sounds likely that they will make it easier to add PNG image resources. No guarantees, but likely. It sounds a bit less likely, or farther out on the horizon, that they will enable proper import of PNG graphics. So, for now, I'll finish adding the support to our Midas Rich Text LSX and post a couple posts on how to do it without Midas going through the correct hoops.
