So, I have completed an animation with a custom background picture i.e. a picture of a google search. It runs normal & fine on my laptop but when I compremise it into a ZIP-file to send it to my supervisor, I get constantly the same error repeatedly
First, this is the animation I am doing:
PImage space_is_amazing; //defining the background picture as “spaceisamazing”.
int Main_Star_Diameter = 400; // self-explanatory definition for the origin star’s diameter.
int Moon_Diameter = 20; //The diameter of the moon added orbiting the earthlike planet.
int Patros = 40; //The diameter of the first rocky planet.
int Tetao = 60; //The diameter of the second rocky planet.
int b_h_dr = 5; // the blackhole diameter.
int Ast_dr = 8; // The diameter of the manipulating asteroids.
float XCo_S = 900.5; //displaying the x-position of the origin star.
float YCo_S = 450.5; //displaying the y-position of the origin star.
float YCo_FRS = 200.5; //This specific integer is defined as the starting y-coordinate for the random blue stars.
float ElP_Dr = 70.5; //The diameter of the earthlike planet added into the animation.
float Rs_Dr = 7.5; //The diameter of the random light blue stars added into the project.
float Influentical_planet_dr = 20.5; //The diameter of the own manipulative planet in the last section of this animated project.
void setup()
/The setup of this animation is the formation of the background picture & to confirm readjustment of it’s dimensions to that of the actual display window./

And the error I always get, is this:
The file “backgroundpicture.jpg” is missing or inaccessible, make sure the URL is valid or that the file has been added to your sketch and is readable.
NullPointerException
Could not run the sketch (Target VM failed to initialize).
For more information, read Help ? Troubleshooting.
I hope, someone could help me out with this since I have to submit this in a week 
Sincerely,
William.
