It may be good to check out other packages even if it is more trouble. My laptop (windows) doesn't like pygame, and has some trouble with directpy (island won't show up in the demo). More info can be found about this trouble in the documentation for panda3d. I would also suggest that opengl isn't a good choice because of complexity of the install and updated version of the .dll that you end up with when you try to install gimp.. For 2d stuff it is all 2d array stuff so all you realy need is point and 2d arrays although that is better handeled by the ui.. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
