nice work; but a comment on the gameplay: using the reccomended speed and delay settings of 5 if the person holds the mouse down for a little bit longer than a quick click they will accidentally do the next move. At least on my system, which is fairly fast.

look into Asian's FPS stuff http://www.compsci.ca/v2/viewtopic.php?t=859

I've been through this question before, and there is no command to find the system's specs, so you have to work out something like Asian did.

kk's thanks .. I had another feature with it i have to add sometime when i get around it took away the black circle at the top of the screen when you got up there. In turing submissions is my connect 4 without the pic screen it just flashes the box without merging in behind the front. I'll look into Asian's FPS stuff though and see what i can come up with.

bugs found!
first of all, y is it that after inserting like... i dont know, 30 pieces, the game ends, isnt it suppose to let you keep playing till one wins or the whole box is filled?
2nd, if one colum is full, you can still insert pieces into that colum, but it's not showing up anywhere, and it counts as a move
