One colored trunk

I decided to make the images that show up during the Running Zyx game 4-bit. They were 8-bit. Although I saved a little room, the Jaguar decided to replace the darker tree trunk color with black. No matter what I did, everything I tried, and it still showed up black. So then I got the idea that if it wants to be black and I can't change it, I'll change the trunk color to the other color that was displaying fine. Then it can be black all it wants but not show up at all. So that's what I did. And this is the result:

It doesn't look as detailed, but I had to do this in order for it to display correctly. So now instead of it being 1.75MB in size, it's now 1.66MB. I also added the ability for Zyx to jump here. This way if the vut and the banana overlap each other, Zyx can still get the banana and not touch the vut (which, while hard, is not entirely impossible like it was.)
