31 May '09 Winky's Walkway map animated, new grid funtionality!
Thought I'd squeeze in one last May update, after working behind-the-scenes for the past few days. The focus of my effort lately has been an enhancement to the grid overlay system for the Level Map Viewer; now when the grid is enabled, the 'tile' and 'screen' the mouse cursor is over will light up, and tile/screen coordinates are now shown close at hand, allowing you to easily distinguish which area of the map is being viewed. This will be improved upon in the future, but just getting it all working is a big step forward for me, as I'm not much of a programmer. 
You can preview the results of my effort on the newly animated Winky's Walkway map.
