Looks great!

Yea, mapwarper is awesome!

About being able to add additional layers: I think this is something that
quite a few people have shown a desire for. Will start a separate thread
with Tim (the author) and see if we can perhaps work together to add an
option to add custom layers or so.

About the server being slow, I think it is recommended to cache and serve
the tiles from your own server after you are done warping on mapwarper.net.
Again, I think this could be helped with some how-to.

I think Srinivas Kodali setup this instance: http://mapwarper.in which we
wanted to use as a warper instance for Indian maps. Shall take this
discussion off-list to see if we can hack on specific stuff together, etc.
Warping maps can be addictive :-)

Cheers!
