ImageCreateFromPNG

[rich]

I'm writing a php script with the gd library. I had everything working
wonderfully, however, all of the sudden, If i import two png's into one
image, the quality of the second png degrades very badly.

If I only use one, it looks fine. If i load one with
ImageCreateFrom PNG and reference it twice, it looks fine. It's only
when I use ImageCreateFrom PNG twice on two different files, the second
one looks awful. Any suggestions?

You're trying to combine images with different colour tables.

Use imagecreatetrue color() to make a 24-bit full-colour image, and paste
your PNGs into that.
