Thanks for the help! I knew I had to be missing something... yes, that allows newimage1.jpeg to be included into the zip archive, however, it puts it in the central directory. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use Archive::Zip qw(:ERROR_CODES);

my $zipFile = Archive::Zip->new();
my $status = $zipFile->read( '/home/clueless/blabla.zip' );

my $oldimage1 = 'branch/stick/image1.jpeg';
my $newimage1 = Archive::Zip::Member->newFromFile( 'newimage1.jpeg' );
my $oldmember = $zipFile->replaceMember( $oldimage1, $newimage1 );

my $stat = $zipFile->overwrite();

I'm trying to replace image1.jpeg in the branch/stick archive directory.

Maybe my thought process is incorrect but it would seem to me that a replaceMember method would put the new member in exactly the same location as the old one. It does not appear to be that way... must I declare the archive directory as well? How do I do so? I didn't find any specific methods which appeared to handle this... (of course, I could be overlooking something again.)
