PNG Transparency Resize с классом SimpleImage.php

Я использую модифицированную версию класса SimpleImage.php: http://www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk/articles/php-image-resizing.php

Изменения, которые я нашел на phpfreaks (http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=301811.0), но когда я использую, png изменяется, но прозрачность черная.

Я делаю вызов как:

 $max_width = 200; // set a max width
 $max_height = 150; // set a max height
 if($imgW > $imgH){ // width is greater
      // resize to width up to max
      if($imgW > $max_width) $image->resizeToWidth($max_width);
 }
 else { // height is greater
      // resize to height up to max
      if($imgH > $max_height) $image->resizeToHeight($max_height);
 }

 $image->save($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/path/" . $new_filename);

Я не уверен, что пропало. Любая помощь приветствуется...
