My project is a four-sided room with pictures on the walls, a table, lights,
windows, and a door. It's a rather simple final project that allowed me to
include various pictures that I like.  The pig spinning on the back wall was
drawn by my girlfriend, and for some reason, I felt like rotating it around on
the wall to make it look like it's doing cartwheels. I also included pictures of
my girlfriend and I, as well as two paintings I like.

I made the four walls, the ceiling, and the floor by using nested for-loops and
quad strips. I drew the table using quad strips and quads, and the pictures,
windows, and the door were done by using quads.

I found it difficult finding a texture for the walls that would look good with
the texture I used for the floor.  Actually, it was difficult finding all of the
textures i used, excluding the pig and the pictures of my girlfriend and I. I
also used Photoshop to adjust the bitmaps and to add frames to the two
paintings.

I used three white lights, which are "mounted" against three of the walls. I
also included a "flashlight", which moves as the perspective of the user moves.
However, I wanted to keep the spotlight in one place and have it aimed at the
rotating pig. This didn't work because every time I would press an arrow key,
the room would rotate, but the light would not.  I couldn't figure out how to
get the light to stay focused on the animation so I changed how I used the
spotlight.
