Sorry for the noise: I think I answered my own question. You basically stick a pinhole in the image you want to place at its desired center, you put a pinhole on the scene at the place you want the image to go, and you use overlay/pinhole to place the image (or place-image/align, and use 'pinhole as the x-place and y-place.)
I'm still a little confused by the use of place-image/align, since it seems like you need to utter the location that you're pinning the image to twice, once in the coordinates for place-image/align, and once in the pinhole you place on the scene. But it does seem to work. y On Sat, Feb 5, 2011 at 10:05 PM, Yaron Minsky <ymin...@gmail.com> wrote: > In playing around with image.ss, I've run into the following problem: the > center of an image does not appear to be rotation invariant.
