I heard that using GLaux is bad and I heard you all guys saying that you made your own bitmap loaders and stuff. Can i have a link of where to download. Or tutorials on how to make one. How is the bmp file format structured ? How to convert it to the one that OpenGL works with to create texures ?

Ya, you need to download the libraries and headers. Just search for "DevIL" on google, it should find their page. All you need are three DLL''s, three libs, and some headers.
