My code runs extremely slowly. Is there too much going on, or am I doing something wrong?

My code runs extremely slowly and I'm not sure why. I can't figure out how to paste the code in cleanly, sorry this is my first forum post:

How can I make this run faster?

Thank you, it's reformatted

Resizing images is slow, so try not to use the 5 argument version of image ()

I'd also add a line of debug to rebox() because I think you might be calling it multiple times per frame.
