I have to say that Allegro is the most simple graphics library i have ever
used. It really lets me program the program flow, without too much to worry
about allocating buffers, blitroutines and all that. I have to tips to use
it:

- Look properly at the example files. They are a good starting point.
- Write your own classes around Allegro. Instead of opening and closing
handles, put them in a constructor/destructor.
