Is there anything I can do to make sure it
displays as the original

Try saving the original image as a .jpg - the shadow effect requires more shades of grey than a .gif can provide. If transparency is required, save as a .png, but use IE conditional comments to render the .gif version to IE6 users since IE6 cannot render transparent .pngs.

Example:

<!--[if < IE 7]><img src="myimage.gif"><![end if]-->
<![if > IE 6]><img src="myimage.png"><![End If]>

The first line will be ignored by all browsers except IE6 and earlier, the second line will be rendered by all browsers, but ignored by IE6.
