If you are actually using a NASA logo, rather than what
you showed us here, I would guess that some colors get loaded
to show that image. A simple fix would just be to load a
color table first (this should probably be done *anyway*
if colors are important to you, and when are they NOT?):

LoadCT, 0, /Silent
