Moving the HUD around

The HUD seems to have gotten in the way of gameplay.  So I'm fixing it.  Originally I tried this idea:


but that didn't really seem to help with gameplay.  It easily got in the way and so I moved it around.

It looks much better, but there is still some work to be done.  Lives is going to be moved to the bottom-right corner because the middle seems odd.  And instead of lives as a number, it's going to be changed to little smiley faces (five if you have five lives, etc.).  I still think that some art for the HUD might look cleaner, but we're going to have to wait and see what problems we need to fix first.  We should be getting some good feedback from the beta testing.
