Anyone know where I can find a good allegro tutorial. Also if you know how to load a bitmap for background use in Allegro how would you use it and load the bitmap file image. Or is it possible to use the imaging package for jpegs and port that over to Allegro so you don't have 1.5mb pictures as the background and you can have 18kb pictures as the background.
Also another note. I've bought Borland C++, and Visual C++ Compiler, but Dev-C++ is the best, fastest, and easiest to use in my opinion.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Hi, sorry I found your post today, but for Allegro you could try: http://agdn.netfirms.com
this site is just great!
just a note: instead of trying to compile the examples from the explanation, go to the download section and download them, the zip files include the .dat file required to make those examples run, and if you just copy and paste the examples from the explanation you will have problems without the .dat files :P.
Have a Happy New Year!
