Hi Ive been trying to do a tutorial thats using glaux to load images. Where can I find a tutorial to load an image with C (not C++) Thanks v1c

lat i knew glaux was a C library, although its somewhat out of date.

DevIL is the only other C based image library I know of, it has some tutorials with it on how to use it with OpenGL

errm, how can a loading API get ''old''? the file formats dont change over time and its not like they need new effects
That said FreeImage does look nice

personaly i use Corona but thats coz i like the C++ API it has, although it does need DDS support but i''ll just add that later when i need it like i did JPG writing :D

Thanks, I''ll give them a go. Isnt there a tutorial with the actual code to load an image, not a library as such but the actually loading process code.
