Using clothify doesn't have anything to do with random maps, it just simply
must be used after the map image is generated.  It's true that I haven't
seen another game use such an effect with random maps, but I consider that a
good thing.

The core of my game is finished, and while I still have more work to do I
think it would be a mistake to tack graphics on last; this is a game and
they are an integral part of the UI.  Also, I am sure it will take quite
some time for me to find an artist I like, and having decent screenshots
will mean I can start looking earlier -- not to mention set up a website,
etc.
