Hello all, I am just wondering how you get started and learn
how to do all this stuff that is talked about in here. A while back ,
someone told me to start small, like a simple solitare game or
something like that, but I have no clue where to start! Any
suggestions? I think I can take care of the coding behind the game, it
is just the graphics that I am totally lost at. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Why not start with a text based version of the game. You can get
all the logic of the game laid out and tested. Then graft a
graphical interface on top of what you've already crafted.
There are also some good tutorials to Ada programming available
on line.

How to do graphics is highly system dependent. I always find
it useful to look at examples. Try Jerry van Dyk's (sp?)
code for SVGA under, I think, both DOS and Windows, or the
room.adb file in the Windows dining philosophers, for instance.
Look at www.adapower.com for links to these and other good things.
