Well, I guess he wouldn't have used gdiplus.dll if he was planning to run the app on Linux, so I'm guessing the conclusions should be:

- If you're doing multi-platform software, don't use platform specific libraries.

- If you're doing multi-platform software, test on all your target OSes.

Use any OS that makes you productive.

Just to clarify, he didn't use gdiplus.dll, he used System.Drawing, which in turn uses gdiplus.dll.
