Nice work on the deck. Might I suggest you get rid of the "glares" on
the face card penguins? They look okay on the Ace of Spades as they're
more subtle there. On the unshaded cards they don't really look
natural as I'm pretty sure even a wet penguin isn't that shiny. ;)

Doubly nice work on tracking down the copyright info. I'm now worried
I might have broken the rules in converting the Standard deck to SVG.
The original artwork had no copyright info and the new SVG doesn't
have any either, so I guess that's neither a net loss nor a net win.
