Deck Viewer for Pro Tour coverage

The Pro Tour video coverage is nice, although there is one thing that has been nagging at me for a while: The cards are hard to recognize. While this was ok, when I still recognized the cards by image, it was rather difficult with the Pro Tour Prague coverage, since I didn’t know most Dissension cards and am still struggling with some Guildpact cards. Therefore I created a Deck Viewer that allows a visual representation of Magic decks as shown on www.wizards.com. Just enter an URL (I suggest http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgevent/ptpra06/t8decks) with deck lists and it will show a visual overview of the deck (currently without sideboard).

At the moment the page looks rather ugly and has several shortcomings. This is mostly because this is more of a proof of concept (one hour hack) and an idea I would like to pitch to Wizards. Nevertheless I would like to hear about bugs or improvement suggestions.
