Thanks for the feedback.

As I said, the template is not yet ready for full deployment. I only prepared it for this demo, and I haven't written the documentation that will allow any person to come into the template page and easily use it throughout the wiki.

The problem with using the mahjong tiles from the website you linked is that the images are not taken directly at the face of the tile. Thus when they are rotated, the images don't stack well when you display open an chi, pon, or kan. My initial desire was to use the tiles from the Saki mahjong set ver.3.0, but there are no images big enough to provide a good quality display on the wiki.

At this stage, the tiles I've used are the best from a technical point of view because they are in SVG (scalable vector graphic) format. They do not become pixelated when blown up (see below). Until we can find a set that more fitting of the style of the Saki series, this set should suffice for demonstration purposes.
