My completely unsubstantiated suspicion is that the majority of casual dinkers are using the web build these days. It's about time people moved on from BMP.
My completely unsubstantiated suspicion is as follows:
What you say may be correct, but I doubt the most common Linux distros have PNG support as they still run version 109.[x]. I'd still say that many Linux users fire up & finish the original game* and then come here to the DN expecting to be able to run any dmod they download.
BTW, as of February there are still many Linux users reviewing (VERY positively!) our beloved gaming obsession.
*(The Linux version of the game that I use is still at version freedink 109.6-3. Does that support PNG? I suspect it does not.)
