I have made auto-alferie-svg the default set. This is a new set I created today.

Thank you.  I'm pleased to see the alfaerie set as default, since it is the most complete and most recognizable.  What is 'auto-alferie-svg'?  This doesn't seem to be a GC piece set.  I'd like to see an index.

While this set should have as many pieces as alfaeriePNG35, alfaerie-many has more than both, as several alfaerie pieces have not been converted to SVG yet.

For sure.  There are dozens, possibly hundreds, of pieces that haven't been converted.  Some are obscure, some have unknown purpose, and some just look terrible.  I'd like to expand the set in a controlled manner.  And there are even a few that have been converted that I'm not happy with.  There are also a few more that are done and still need to be added.  I have a few days off so I'll try to get a handle on this.

A lot is happening recently.  Very happy to see it!  Happy New Year, everyone!
