Low Color images in statusmap

Hi,
The statusmap displays icons in what appears to be 16-colors. Even when I set the statusmap_image to a png rather than gd2, such as:
define hostextinfo{

statusmap_image vendor-logos/windows_server.png
}

I’ve tried

  • indexing the .png to 128 & 255 colors
  • using no compression on the .png
  • greyscaling seems to be OK.

I’m running Fedora 3(reasonably up to date patching) with:
libgd 2.0.28
libpng 1.2.8

Google searches and the FAQ are not yielding any hits. Is anyone else having this problem?
