Is there a way around this?

hmmm. I guess i dont really know what my problem is. It just draws straight lines from one corner to the other without rendering the image at all. I got it to draw one image fine, then i guess i changed something and now I am stumped again. I have little to no experience with coding and the like, so i am kinda stumbling in the dark. this has been a learning experience for sure.

here are my properties if that helps:
controller.pixel.samplearea=1.0
controller.pictureframe.position.y=200
controller.pictureframe.position.x=282
controller.testPenWidth.startSize=0.11
controller.machine.colour=969696
machine.motors.mmPerRev=95.0
controller.window.width=1366
controller.frame.colour=C80000
controller.image.position.y=180
controller.image.position.x=248
machine.motors.accel=700.0
controller.image.height=213
controller.machine.serialport=0
controller.window.height=706
controller.maxSegmentLength=2
machine.penlift.up=180
machine.penlift.down=90
controller.page.position.y=119
controller.vector.scaling=100.0
controller.page.position.x=96
controller.pictureframe.width=228
machine.step.multiplier=1
controller.grid.size=20.0
controller.testPenWidth.endSize=1.2
controller.pictureframe.height=168
controller.page.colour=DCDCDC
controller.testPenWidth.incrementSize=0.11
controller.image.width=298
machine.motors.stepsPerRev=400.0
machine.pen.size=0.08
controller.page.width=601
controller.pixel.mask.color=00FF00
controller.machine.baudrate=57600
controller.vector.minLineLength=0
machine.width=793
controller.page.height=421
controller.vector.position.y=0.0
controller.background.colour=646464
controller.image.filename=C\:\\Users\\Tim\\Dropbox\\Polargraph Drawing Machine\\eye.jpg
controller.vector.position.x=0.0
controller.homepoint.y=119.0
controller.guide.colour=FFFFFF
machine.motors.maxSpeed=200.0
controller.homepoint.x=396.0
controller.density.preview.style=1
controller.pixel.scaling=2.03
controller.densitypreview.colour=000000
machine.height=1047

In the latest versions, the min grid size allowed is 5. (Or was it changed back to 20 and no one told me?) In 1.7.25 I can slide down to 5, anyway.
