This might sound wierd but how do i get the spaces out from between the hours the colon and the minutes and also i need the time to show up on top of a screen:blit

EDIT: also is there an easy way to do something like if the two pictures intersect then turn on picture
like if you wanted to highlight something and you have a regular picture and that picture highlighted in a color then you say when the cursor and the picture interect turn on the highlighted picture

any help is greatly appreciated

I don't understand your questions, can you write it in more understandable English? Perhaps the clock example from http://www.luaplayer.org/gallery/ helps you.

Ill explain this as best as i can the time is like this 4 : 23 i want it like 4:23 but it the clock example the numbers are on a blank background i cant get my numbers to show up above my own background

Take a look at http://www.lua.org/manual/5.0/manual.html#5.7 and then at the description of strftime, for example at Microsoft and you should be able to build the correct format string.

For writing on top of your background use a tutorial at http://www.luaplayer.org/tutorial/ , perhaps the animation with the smiley and write the time instead of blitting the smiley on top of the background.

i understand that when bliting it shows the most recent on top but how about a screen:print on top of a screen:blit is it the same?

I'm sorry, the documentation is not as good as it could be, so you can't know the result, but did you considered to just try what I wrote?

Im not as concerned about the format of the time as i am about it actually being visable
