Well actually, they aren't really 'broken', but I was looking at them and noticed that the huge frames that give the darkness/light effect weigh almost a megabyte each. I thought about it and played around with it. They only use black and white, so why not change them to monochrome instead of 256 color? It works and it greatly reduces the size of the files. I'm not really sure if it's worth updating the files though

Nice idea. If I remember, I'll update the files along with the next batch of 1.08 updates.

Chop your own wood, and it will warm you twice. 
There might be a small bug with WDE. It won't display the 2-bit graphics(I think this topic was already discussed). Anyway, you don't need them in WDE.
