If you're going for realism (and I think you should), it's better with small
pieces. That way, things aren't scaled to sizes they can't technically be
made to assume, and you don't get misleading results of interpolation (you
get 1-pixel horizontal/vertical lines, not 0.5 pixel or 1.25 pixel
interpolated).
Change it to Ximian pieces, perhaps? After all, it's Ximian Setup Tools :)
I'm sorry I can't test the tool on anything but Redhat right now.
