okay - if i like the antique cushion look - and not crushed ice...
do i not need to worry about table and depth %?s - and just go by look?
the below is from the tutorial on cushions.....

A very basic table and depth range for Modern Cushion cuts is 54-62 % table and 59-64% depth, but Antique Cushions can run the gamut when it comes to proportions. Culet size and square or rectangular shape are a personal preference, and length to width ratios are variable. Cushions are best judged by the eye, or at the very least--if buying online, by photographs and/or an experienced “vendor eye.”
 
You are really looking at plots to separate the different types of cushions. An antique cushion will have 8 fat mains plot.

For me, I like my depths in the mid 60s and the table in the low to mid 50s.
