Well, not. Generally if you are going to be putting the image back 
exactly where it came from, you could simply grab and mask it, however, 
if you will be moving it from one spot to another, then you may as well
shift the entire thing so that it is left justified in the image buffer.
This simplifies the code to put the image back on the screen in another
location.
