Hi :) How is graphics programming done is C++? I read from some articles that OpenGL is a way but I want to know if there is another way by which its easier and the learning ramp is not that steep.

if you want to learn graphics programming, try downloading a graphics engine. They give you a head start without having to learn a lot of math/theory and complicated APIs. Try these (open source engines):
2D - Haaf's Game Engine (DirectX)
3D - OGRE or Irrlicht (DirectX or OpenGL)

By the way so you know of a site that offers a tutorial about this graphics engines?

They would be of great help to me...
