[Mono-list] Might this be a bug?

[Ellis, Edward]

Is this a bug or should I do further troubleshooting?  I could start
small and work up, but I thought, "Why not go for the gusto?"  This
looks like it might be an installation problem, but as a newbie, I am
not sure.

I ran a simple WindowForms VB application written in VB.NET and got the
following exception:

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception
was thrown by the type initializer for System.Drawing.GDIPlus --->
System.DllNotFoundException: gdiplus.dll
