I suspect this is your problem:

box(local_win,0,0);

Zero-Zero is the upper left pixel is it not? Shouldn't this be a non static location, ie: shouldn't you be using x and y here? I'm unfamiliar with the specific functions you're using, so I may be off there, but that's what it looks like to me.

No hehe x & y are for height and width.. if i wanted to make it move i would have to use the command move() but that is the thing i dont know how to here.. i am tring it out.. but still cant get it
