 .4) Why do you want to participate in summer of code?
 I want to participate in project in developing game particularly in C++(and preferably using SDL libraries). This way I could give all the knowledge I have gained in two years and will experience the open source world which I am very passionate about.

-The only issue which i found is :
 Once a spritesheet is made, it becomes tedious for the developers to edit the images packed in it. For the initial stage we can define Macros arrays(of size 4) containing the x-y coordinates and their respective width and height.This way devs will become aware of the frames and their images. Later , we could work upon developing a widget to select the frames from the given image-spritesheet.By selecting the frame , Devs could work upon the particular image.
