You asked whether PNG was an abbreviation, and DrV gave a funny meaning. He could have left out your Holy Grail remark though. :-)

While I'm sure you're being an ass, he was giving a recursive backronym for PNG; It's like the PHP acronym, which stands for "PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor". Or GNU, which stands for "GNU's Not Unix". Get it?
While his acronym is amusing, that really isn't what it means.

Ah, now I get it... I didn't notice what he said was meant as the explanation of the abreviation... Well yes, it's very funny DrV. :)
I thought he meant "PNG is, GIF isn't", silly me.
