public class GUI
extends StackedScreen

This is the main class of Pebble It. It is primarily concerned with running the applet and ensuring that it works properly, dealing particularly with starting and stopping the applet. It also preloads the images and sounds used throughout the game, and stores several colors and images as static variables so that other classes can access them. GUI houses several important class variables that play a large role in the structure of the game. The 'screen manager' is a CardLayout object that stores all the screens displayed throughout the game, and flips between them according to user navigation. The 'comm' object is called by all other classes that need to reference or update the database. The 'controller' variable comes from the GraphController class that stores the game's data and is separated from gui elements. UPDATE v2.0: The GUI class is no longer the applet class. It is just a JFrame that gets constructed from PebbleItMainPanel. Also GUI no longer deals with preloading images and sounds. Those responsibilities have been moved to the Resources class. Update v2.13: This class is no longer static. It was causing problems when loading the game in two tabs, etc.
