David Gervais' tile sets

One of the unsung heroes of Angband and roguelikes in general is David Gervais, who designed the 32x32 tilesets for AngbandTK originally, and extended these to the 54x54 tilesets which I've adopted in Unangband.

I just ran across a google post that puts a little bit of the history of this development into perspective. I was actually looking for the original copy of his 54x54 tile sets, which were hosted here but the site currently appears down. If you have a copy of the original tiles, please drop me a line - I had them on one of the laptops that was recently stolen.

This came up in discussion about getting a new icon for Unangband. Suggestions and designs are welcome.
