Hmm. I wasn't aware that resolve-planet-path was so new.

   Welcome to DrScheme, version 352.8-svn27oct2006.
   Language: Pretty Big (includes MrEd and Advanced Student).

Joshua, in hend.scm simply delete these lines:

(define einstein
   (load-painter (resolve-planet-path
      '(planet "einstein.gif" ("soegaard" "sicp.plt" 1 0)))))

Yes, I forgot to add it in painter.ss.

I was hoping to figure out why the operations rotate the wrong
way before updating the package. Everything seems to be defined
as in the book though - so it is hard to find.

PS: Happy birthday MF.
