Yes, I will follow up on this.

Ok. Thanks for your persistence. Last night I was exploring the 
Squeakland image. A few minutes ago, I downloaded

http://etoys.laptop.org/src/etoys-image-and-pr.zip

and, just to be sure, this is what you're suggesting that I work with, yes?

Or should I be doing this?


       Building etoys.image from developer's image

Developer's image (etoys-dev.image) is included in the svn repository 
http://etoys.laptop.org/svn/trunk/etoys/

   * Press 'load code updates' button.
   * Save the image.

   * Place project files for 'Gallery', 'Tutorials', and
     'EtoysActivity' in the image directory.
   * Set screen size to 1200@900 ("Display inspect" helps).

   * Save as 'etoys.image'.
   * And execute:

ReleaseBuilderSqueakland new prepareReleaseImageForOLPC.


Thanks (again) in advance.
