Hi David,
Almost, but not quite. Now, all the grid cells are the same size. But, it only puts 4x4 cells in there (instead of 5x5). It looks like the left column and bottom row are being cut off the image correctly.

It puts the image in the right place, but the edge columns and rows are chopped in half in size (they should all be the same size). So you can see that this means all the points are offset from where they really should be. Does anyone know what is happening here?
