Hi,
Ok, in my game, I'm using 640x480, and it's a tile based game.  What I want,
is to have the tiles in the background remain permanent, while the player's
sprite moves around.  Right now, I'm double buffering, and blitting 
EVERYTHING!  I'm assuming this is a slow and in efficient method.
Is there a faster (and a less complex) method of doing such a thing?

I just want the background bitmap to be permanent, and not change (Unless
I tell it to).


Bye!
