If you put Maria in the upper half of the playing-area, her lower cell-row does not appear in the game (it does > appear in JSWED).
It does appear, but its associated colour-attributes are eight cell-rows below where they should be.  If the lower half of Maria's sprite is drawn on Air cells, and the Air INK and PAPER colours match, then the lower half of the sprite will of course be invisible!
This bug in the JSWED GUI is still in place.  You can manually edit the appropriate hex address (at #9574, replace #5D with #5C).  Ideally a future upgrade of JSWED will fix this bug (along with several other known ones - I've tried to catalogue them in recent posts here).
