	You attached PNG (Portable Network Graphic) images.  The original 
images are both EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) files.  EPS files are 
inherently scale-free, because they are vector-based.  PNGs are 
bit-mapped.

	You must have some program you use to turn vector-based images 
into bit-mapped ones.  Whatever that program is, it apparently 
rendered one file worse than the other.

	Perhaps you can use a different program that will let you look at 
the original EPS files in their native vector-based formats.
