Re: SDL Surface Bliting

That solved the problem thanks.  I remember seeing a note in the  
SDL_CreateRGBSurface about turning off alpha sometimes not working and  
needing to call SDL_SetAlpha.  I didn't think it would be a problem  
for me since I did specify it and was drawing a solid image first.
