  dvips  cannot process .png images.

But you don't need to do any processing at all with a .png
as you can simply link to it.

You should be using  \htmladdimg  with LaTeX2HTML,
to specify that you want this image to be shown.
Consult the LaTeX2HTML documentation to see how to
use this, and how to specify the various options that
are available when linking to images.

Yes, but not using  \includegraphics .

You want to link to the image at a small size,
making it an active link to a full-sized version.
