Err - maybe this is my problem?  What do you mean by
"make sure that your coordinates array carries the
coordinates in the corresponding order?"

As I understood the tutorial, you could specify the
vertex data in any order:

  ul   ur
   *---*
   |\  |
   | \ |
   |  \|
   *---*
  ll   lr

Given this picture again, my vertex data is provided
in a by-ref array aligned like this:  ul, ur, ll, lr.

Then (as I said previously) the index data is aligned
like this:  ul, ll, lr for tri 1 and lr, ur, ul for
tri 2.

Does that seem reasonable?

Ultimately, my current code isn't this simple, so I'll
probably have to go back and code up this simple
example to see what I get.

Good eye, but no, I am using just an
IndexedTriangleArray for Part 1.  Part two is based on
some different code I wrote using an
IndexedTriangleStripArray.  I have questions about
using that class as well (beyond the one posed in Part
2), but I think I'll leave that for another time.

I think I'll probably have to resort to that, thanks.
