Ah I found the problem. Your file has a unique color count of 3863 colors. PHP Image Generation tries to create images with a 256 count palette (this is not something I have any control over) so it was causing problems trying to decide which colors to keep.
I saved your image as a 256 color image and used the icon creator on it, and ended up with this:
vs. ![[Image: IconSample02.png]](/image.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jermungandr.net%2Fjunk_drawer%2FIconSample02.png&hash=9a12316cb2324e53ae246f1e1269bd0d)
Arguably it could have looked even better if I had used something other than Irfanview to resave the image, but I think you get the point.
