Hi all

I’m a newbie to Games programming I have a little bit of Java knowledge but not that much of the complicated stuff!
I am considering getting a book on this and any recommendations would be greatly recieved!

My biggest problem is that I can’t draw to save my life and so I have an issue when it comes to the graphics for the game! anyone know of any good drawing tutition sites or royaslty free graphics sites I could use for the learning process at leaste?

Thanks in advance
