Caterpillar graphics #8

Currently a few concerns:

  1. Head images have a white background, instead of a transparent one
  2. Curvy body images might be a bit too wide? Two parallel snakes still like they are touching each other

Minor issue: curvy body images and and tail images have a low resolution: do we want to keep it this way? It could add a classic feel to the game

Potential feature: can you create a "dead" caterpillar head? It could be just adding a red/black "x" where the mouth would normally be on the head. This would be used when the caterpillar dies

Too wide bodies- problem solved for all bodies, heads, and tails. Width is now 95% of original width.

I could try adding the dead caterpillar head, but it's challenging to draw x's with the not-so-good photo editing programs I have. Do you have a better program? Adobe Photoshop? The image is so small that you have to draw pixel by pixel.

The resolution problem lies in the small size of our squares (40px) and the GIF format. The latter is unsolvable, but we could consider increasing the square size to enhance the resolution of the images.

I think this issue can be closed now.

Can you confirm that all images have a transparent background instead of a white background? I think that's the only thing left of this issue
