Learning a lot about creating graphics...FINALLY!

Well, it's been a while but I'm finally getting to the point where I can created some decent images using graphic software. This is a Goblin warrior I created using Gimp. I'm getting to the point where I can actually create images like this one in just an hour or so.


"Goblin Warrior"

Also, I did the testing on the line class (suggested by ZMan) and I hope to post those results sometime this week as well (for those of you who don't want to wait for those, he was right, doing the draws in a batch was faster).

Anway, I'm still working on the game, still trying to blog my progress (ever so slowly) and hopefully my research and work at figuring out how to use Managed DirectX to created a 2D game will benefit others as well.

    Its very well written; I love what youve
    got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of
    text for only having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could
    space it out better?
