Thats the simplest way. Could also set width height with SetWindowPos function (Windows) but that requirs more pTk chops.

Also since I forgot how to fix this nonsense 

 gcc -s -L../zlib -o pngtest pngtest.o libpng.a -lz -lm
gcc  -s -o example example.o libz.a
gcc  -s -o minigzip minigzip.o libz.a
gcc  -s -o example_d example.o libzdll.a
example.o:example.c:(.text+0x33): undefined reference to `compress'
example.o:example.c:(.text+0x60): undefined reference to `uncompress'

Since Tk::PNG doesn't need those examples get rid of that junk 

#~ Tk-804.033\PNG\zlib\Makefile
#~ Tk-804.033\PNG\zlib\win32\Makefile.gcc
#~ all: $(STATICLIB) $(SHAREDLIB) $(IMPLIB) example minigzip example_d
+ minigzip_d
all: $(STATICLIB) $(SHAREDLIB) $(IMPLIB)

That should do it, although when I test this I run into memory access violation, and then I give up :)
