The 'bit of work' is very simple. 

1) Download gif2png for your  platform from:
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/gif2png/ You can batch convert all .GIFs 
in a directory tree with a single command. 

1) Then change any .GIF references in your .MAP and .HTML files to 
.PNG. 

Shouldn't take more than ten or fifteen minutes.

cheers,
