This guide seriously needs images. Also, it would be good if the image(s) were in agreement with the text; your text talks about a wall 8 x 512, yet the image shows a wall that is 1 x 8 (approx.) squares, which would put it roughly at 8 x 64 units... Alcator 12:54, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Removed incorrect section about corners meeting at a point

I've removed an incorrect part of the article as not to mislead new mappers. Corners meeting at a point do not cause leaks.
