Take a look at the color picking technique.  Place a rect behind the image (in a color buffer), when you click the image send that info into your draw to expand the image selected.  Alternatively (and perhaps easier), you could determine the mouse position (mouseX, mouseY) the the mouseclick, then compare it to image positions and expand the appropriate image.

As far as I know, saveFrame only supports TIFF, TARGA, PNG, or JPEG.  There may be another Java library out there that would support gif, but that would be a bit more involved.

Is there any way I could export them as a .gif so that I could treat them the same way I do the .jpg images ?


Not sure what you mean since gif and jpeg use very different techniques to compress the image data.

I suspect that you are looking at image formats that can be used in web pages. If that is the case then use png instead of gif as they both are viewable on the web and both use lossless compression so you will see no difference in image quality.

Yea basically since its an image gallery I'm wanting to use other sketches that I coded  and convert them into a png so that I can just use the Image() function rather than having to put all the code for the sketch into the gallery. I'm still very new to processing though so I'm not sure if its even possible. It just seems easier to use mouse event functions on a png file rather than trying to figure out how to integrate it into my code for the sketch.
