Linux notes:
In order to run it in linux, you will need mono >= 3.0 with libgdiplus:First you have to install a previous version of mono. For example in ubuntu:
apt-get install mono-complete
Then you have to build mono 3.0 and libgdiplus from source:
# libgdiplus 3
apt-get install libcairo-dev libpng12-dev libtiff-dev libgif-dev libjpeg-dev libglib2.0-dev
wget https://github.com/mono/libgdiplus/archive/master.tar.gz
mv master.tar.gz libgdiplus-3.0.tar.gz
tar xzf libgdiplus-3.0.tar.gz
cd libgdiplus-master
./autogen.sh && ./configure && make && sudo make install
# mono 3.2
wget http://download.mono-project.com/sources/mono/mono-3.2.0.tar.bz2
tar -xjf mono-3.2.0.tar.bz2
cd mono-3.2.0
./configure && make && sudo make install
