well i downloaded the zip files in the animation section it wont let me drag and drop like they instruct in the video into the workspace for the drawable files. I was wondering if there was any other way to get those files into that folder then dragging and dropping

You should be dragging the files inside the zip file, not the zip file itself. Have you tried that?
