The only reason that I know of that local resources (your gif files)  
wouldn't be loaded is if your web page was loaded with a URL that  
doesn't use the file:// protocol. But that should happen on your  
system too. By any chance do you have a development "shortcut" that  
lets you load the web page using file://, but your users load it using  
http://? That would explain it.

One other possibility is that on the user's system the gif plugin is  
missing.

Those are the only possibilities that I know of, but I haven't been  
using Qt for very long.
