[Mono-list] libgdiplus

[Charlie]

Hi,

I wrote a little c# program to 'stamp' a copyright string onto an image
(http://www.charlie.at/images/200509Klatovy/im_000086_08.jpg)
 
i would eventually like to incorporate this functionality into an online
image gallery viewer (something akin to quickthumbs). in doing this a
few differences between the win32 and mono implementations of libgdiplus
popped up. I am using mono 1.1.9.3 (rpm's from the download page) under
suse 9.3 with the ms fonts installed. 

- the texture brush works in win32 but not in mono.
- the font size calculation seems to be different 565.4896x79.5 win32 to
530x74 mono (this may have something to do with the font?)
- the default Image.Save under win32 is jpeg, in mono it is bmp 

included below a small test app where these differences become visible.
am i doing something stupid here? are there better ways to achieve the
wanted results? for now i can live with doing the copyright stamp under
win32 but eventually it would be nice to upload my pictures to a linux
server and have it automatically stamp, resize and display the images.

thanks for any input,
  charlie
