//Assignment 4: Image + Text
//
// For this assignment I wanted to do something that is relevent to this class.
// I picked a quote from the 1949 issue of Popular Mecahnics  talking about 
// future of computers. The irony of the quote fits quite well with the class of
// which students are using the computers to create art through software. 
// I want the composition to be simple and subtle. I used a small pixel font for its
// modern aesthetic quality. I found a picture of an anvil through Google Image. 
// The picture was adjusted, cleaned up, cropped, and resized in Photoshop. I decided 
// to use an anvil instead of an old computer as the picture because of its retro quality
// and the immediate associate that an anvil has with heavy weight.
