This is for a 2:1 width:height ratio (ala Ultima 8). If you want to use a 1:1 ratio (ala Ultima Online) just remove every second column. You could expand it out to more lines if you want, just follow the pattern...
To move one diamond to the lower-right, just add two plus half the width of a tile to the screen x-coordinate, and add the whole number part of tileheight/2 to the y-coordinate.
This is a method I used for ages which works pretty well.
Hope this is what you were after!
