Thanks Stef, how would I go about using the git tree? I've used SVN 
before but not git so it shouldn't take long for me to wrap my head 
around it. So far I just downloaded a copy of the development version 
from git and i've been working from that copy, i'm not sure how to make 
a new branch (or even if I have permission?).

Also have you had a chance to look at the scan and suggest what i need 
to change? Im guessing that it might be a problem with the CCD, maybe it 
thinks the ccd is larger than it is?

Thanks again

Chris
