  As a note, it is generally more convenient to just attach small files like 
that unzipped or otherwise unprocessed - makes viewing the data easier.

  That said, taking a quick look at the images and the arch, it seems fine.  But 
at some point, I do wonder how many different varieties of gems we really need 
(do we start adding aquamarine?  black pearls?  topaz, etc?)  Looking at the 
current gems in the game, we have ranges from 50 (1 platinum coin) to 400 
(diamond).  This ignores the 'of flawless beauty' and the like gems.

  So that said, I'd think before we start adding every gem we can think of, 
there should be some compelling reason - recipes, quests, etc.  Otherwise, I'd 
think that at some point, if too many gems are in the game, it would start to 
become a detriment.
