Thanks Brent,

I obviously took into account image size but not memory allocation sizes.  :)

Do you have a suggestion on how to handle this better?  I didn't just put them 
in the pieces palette because 1) they can only be shown at full size and 2) 
there's no functionality that I can attach (the "send to trait") unless they 
are played on a board.

Thanks for looking at it!
