I wasn't completely happy with my project because I couldn't get it to do exactly what I wanted it to. Barry suggested that I might have to have the user put the animals on the page without seeing them first. He also suggested that I make them bigger and maybe make an array of different backgrounds to use. I explained that I made them the size that I did to fit with the background I was using. They could be used in different sizes with different backgrounds. Since they didn't work right with the svg file type, I would need to have different size png files to use or find out what the error I got with the svg means and if there is a work around for it.
I think it would be easy to make it have several backgrounds. I'd prefer to let the user see the animals before placing them, but maybe there would be a way to show the various animals first, pick one to place and where to place it. My problem with this project was that processing keeps running the draw and makes the key press last for more than one cycle through draw. That makes it hard to assign values to an array while running. I solved that by placing animals in an array first and then the user just had to chose them and the program found it instead of putting it in the draw function.
