If it helps to only package the SVGs, and not their PNG counterparts,
feel free to do so.  (We should figure out the best way to deal with this,
down the road.  Some platforms may never have suitable SVG support.
Mac OS classic, for example, if Tux Paint ever supports it.  Or Maemo.)

As for TP loading PNG _instead_ of SVG, that's bizarre, since there's
code in there that specifically checks for SVG variations, when loading PNGs.
If the SVG exists, it will ignore the PNG and go about its business
(eventually loading the SVG).

Maybe I've made dumb assumptions somewhere that affect OSX?

(John - Win32 seems to work fine, right???)


Thanks Martin!
