    Well SDL and Allegro are not graphics libraries, OpenGL and Direct3D are graphics libraries.

    Now do you want to actually program a game, or are you just looking to program some sort of GUI?

    Ummm bitub Im not sure what you mean I guess you mean you can't "create" your own graphics with either but anyways. Either one is good. Ive used both and its all really a matter of preference Im personally using Allegro at this point but others here use SDL and both can do some nice things.
    Woop?
