Before I start, I'd like to say that if you want someone to see your code it is usually a good idea to put it in a CODE BOX like this:



instead of uploading a DBA file. Code boxes can be made by typing the following (without the spaces in the [ code ] tabs)
[ code ] The Code goes here [ /code ]


THE PROBLEM:
Okay. Whenever you make a sprite its picture gets put where you made it, in this case at 0,0 (top left corner of the screen). So, when you paste the sprite you will not only see the pasted sprite but also the original from the SPRITE command. The reason "EXIT" is at the top left is because that's the one you created last (all of the other ones are "under" it.)

HOW TO FIX IT:
Try hiding all of the sprites you made using the HIDE SPRITE command.

i.e.
