Hm, I don't really know how to make the screen global to all
Sprite-Objects, so that they can draw on it. If i put all the code
in one file, then it's ok. But I wanted to split the classes into
several files. Seems that I have to pass the screen-object to
each sprite-class. :-/ (You see, I'm new to python too.)

Ok, that's not good IMHO.
I will try it with a master-class controlling the game-objects.


Thanks for you reply.
