    AH! Well, I don't use Moray, so wouldn't have thought have doing that
and would've spent days trying to get everything into the right place...
    Though I'd have done something similar if I'd have done it by hand -
load the image into an image editor and jot down the position and size, in
pixels, of each component and then would probably have created the card
object in POV so that one pov-unit was equal to on pixel on the image...
