Hi Angelique,
It sounds like the version of the Vision Egg you are running is not the
version you are modifying. In your 'dots.py' demo file, do this::
print VisionEgg.__file__
which should print (to the console) the location that the Vision Egg
module is loaded from. It is in that directory that the Dots.py file is
being loaded from. For more details about how python loads modules, see
this:
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path and
this: http://docs.python.org/install/index.html
