Even though it went in right it isn't very much good until grass knows
where the file is? Are you using a coordinate system or just an x-y
system for importing pictures.  You need to register and rectify the
image before it will be correct for the area you are
studying. Bringing it in straight won't do anything for you until
grass knows its earth coordinates in whatever system you are
using. Either edit the cellhd file to be correct or go through a
tutorial for registration and rectification from a x-y coordinate system.
