Well, that one really wasn't too bad as it already had the pngs made  
and most of the valid files were ready to go.  So it went very  
quick.  Just busy work as I was watching tv.

It's about 400 valid SVGs - the majority of them by Gerald G and  
Architetto Francesco Rollandin.  You Jon Phillips have about 16.   
Jean-Victor Bali, Molumen, Nicu Buculei, Patricia Fidi , Moises Maza,  
Martin Kozak, Benji Park all have notable numbers.  Any of these  
people who can upload their own files would really help.

I still don't know where I can upload them in bulk or if I should do  
that.
