Thanks Eli, where do I get the 64bit DLLs, as
     http://www.gtk.org/download/win64.php
     -- the GTK project site; offers much fatter builds, but includes
        64-bit DLLs (from the 2nd URL)

from the docs doesn't work and a search at the site doesn't show up
any prebuilt 64bit DLLs.

Alternately, If I wanted to downgrade to 32bit Emacs, does the gnu
site have them? I downloaded both the  above & 'GNU Emacs 25.1.1
(i686-w64-mingw32) of 2016-09-18a' and still face the same issue.  
Are they both 64bit?

versions mentioned are

libjpeg-version’s value is 80
libpng-version’s value is 10621
libgif-version’s value is 50102
