Hey. I'm new to this game. (I think it rocks) But from the posts it looks like I found it four years too late. 
I'm sure this has been addressed SOMEWHERE, but there's so much info it's hard to track it down.
I played the original and a few dmods, and now I'm trying my hand at making one. It's been 7 or so years since my highschool Computer science class, so my C++ is a little rusty. So I downloaded several "tutorials" and info on the subject to try and teach myself DinkC. I loved the graphic one about using paint, since that's what I've got, and had fun making a graphic I'd like to put into the DMOD. But here's the problem, I can't figure out how to get it into the game. I read through the TUT.txt, and a few other places that were helpful, but don't quite explain that part. I made a new "graphics" folder like I saw in Dink, I even made a "const" folder, I think it was like I saw in dink holding houses and bridges, and then I put my *.bmp inside. I then loaded the editor and eagerly went to see if I could find it, and no luck. So can anyone help me? Is anyone still around this site. Man I wish I had found this years ago.
