[AI]

If you link me to some archived pages that still have the now missing images, I'll grab the images and upload them to wesnoth.org

[Max]

images on exong.net still exist but i would be nice to move them to a more permanent location.

I just put it to practise withe wet black pebbles.
Technically I made a square one tiling by copying inside out. That could be done with hex too!
