You think God would need to use the royal "WE".....now THAT'S funny!

I don't think God would "need" to use the royal we, but the King James Bible is an interpretation that was written in royal times. Is it "we" in other editions?

I personally favor the interpretation that God was speaking to the animals. The notion that Man is made in the image of both God and beast seems to gel nicely with the rest of the Bible's message.

So now God needed help from the ANIMAL KINGDOM to make man??? You need help.

Actually, in the original Hebrew, the first person plural is used, but it was often used in ancient Hebrew to indicate a deliberativeness (is that a word?) about the statement.
