    Smile Need Reference: A Good Tutorial for Integrating Graphics

    Well the title certainly does explain it. If you happen to know of any tutorial about integrating graphics (I don't care how bad it is) please refer me to it with a link.

    I'm trying to make my poorly constructed novice programs at least look awesome.

    Thanks a lot.

    P.S. I'm running windows 2000

    Are you using console applications or Windows/Linux?

    If you're using console, then you're out of luck. You will have to use keyboard characters.

    If you're using Windows/Linux, then you have a number of choices. OpenGL is cross-platform, while DirectX is Windows specific. SDL and Allegro are 2D libraries. These are the most popular of the graphic libraries.

    I was hoping for a more basic method involving notepad and some image files but I will look into those things.

    Also, thanks for asking that question, I'll add it to my post so others don't have to ask.
