Let's make sure the new rebranded version uses the same number of layers as the original.

If the original MNG is animated then the rebranded version should be too. If the original version is not animated --- and merely using a funky MNG container rather than PNG because the original submitter planned to use animation but never got that far :), then we can convert the image to static PNG and be done. I will update the cpp accordingly if we take that route.
