Can't figure out Static Error?

[RPBLEA]

I can't figure out this static error, says non - static variable x,y,c, cannot be reference from a static context? Can anyone help out, something wrong with my code?

import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.Color;

public class elephant extends animal {
private int x;
private int y;
private Color c = Color.blue;

public static void main(String [] args) {

int coordinate;
int coordinate2;
int position;
elephant elephant = new elephant(x, y, c);
for (int k = 0; k < args.length; k++) {
for (int i = 1; i < args.length; i ++) {
if (args.length > 0) {
coordinate = Integer.parseInt(args[k]);
coordinate2 = Integer.parseInt(args[i]);
x = coordinate;
y = coordinate2;

}
}
}
}
public elephant (int xx,int yy, Color cc){
x = xx;
y = yy;
c = cc;
}
public void paint(Graphics g) {
drawhead(g,200 + x,150 + y,80,80);
drawneck(g,280 + x,165 + y,10,50);
drawbody(g,290 + x,165 + y,150,150,10,10);
drawoutleg(g,290 + x,315 + y,20,70);
drawoutleg(g,310 + x,315 + y,10,50);
drawoutleg(g,420 + x,315 + y,20,70);
drawoutleg(g,410 + x,315 + y,10,50);
drawtail(g,440+ x,165+ y,50,10,45,10);
drawsmile(g,170+ x,200+ y,150,140,100,20);
draweyes(g,210+ x,160+ y,20,20);
drawSpots(g,Color.BLUE);
}
public void drawSpots(Graphics g, Color c) {
int[] x = getxspot();
int[] y = getyspot();
int [] size = getsize();
g.setColor(c);
for (int k = 0; k < 5; k ++) {
g.fillOval(x[k],y[k],size[k],size[k]);
}
}
public int [] getxspot() {
int [] array = new int [4];
array [0] = 300;
array [1] = 325;
array [2] = 350;
array [3] = 365;
return array;
}
public int [] getyspot() {
int [] array2 = new int [4];
array2 [0] = 160;
array2 [1] = 160;
array2 [2] = 160;
array2 [3] = 220;
return array2;
}
public int [] getsize() {
int [] array3 = new int [4];
array3 [0] = 25;
array3 [1] = 15;
array3 [2] = 25;
array3 [3] = 15;
return array3;
}
}

I figured it out I just didn't have Private Static Int In front of my X Y and Color values

making everything static is poor programming practice.

incidentally, it's "private static int" not "Private Static Int".. and your variables shouls start with lowercase x and y, not X and Y

there is a big difference, and from what ive seen in your other post, you need to pay more heed to this (uppercase/lowercase thing)
