ok i got the pics i want to use in my program and i know the code but what i get errors so what do i change in the properties of my project to make it load the pic?

It's hard to help if you don't mention what programming language you're using, what errors you are getting or what you tried.
sry bout that. im using dev-c++ and i get an initialization failed error. im trying to use just any pic.
That still isn't giving us any information. You should provide relevant code samples, and detailed error descriptions, as well as different things you have tried. However, I know that a while ago on an older version of Dev-C++, if I ran an application from the IDE (ie: pressing the run button) I would get an initialization error on startup, but everything worked fine when I ran the application from the desktop, so you can try that.

whats wierd though is that im doing an online tutorial and if i use the pic it uses my program works but if i try to load a pic even with the same name it doesnt. it all compiles fine but i get an error after prompting for fullscreen saying "initialization failed" and it closes out. heres my code:

Not all pics are created equal. Sad, but true. The code you have is designed to load only one type of image - Windows Bitmap (.BMP). Chances are that you are providing an image incompatible with what the auxDIBImageLoad routine is expecting (say, a .TGA file, or a .GIF, .TIFF, or .JPG file - all different formats requiring their own loading code or routines - or a library that adds a layer of transparency to it). I would double check the file you want to load to make sure its a bitmap file, and if not, use a converter tool like IrfanView to convert your image.

i figured that so i tried to create my own bitmap and i even gave it the same name as what i was using and i just got a solid white cube.
You need to put the "data" folder with "crate.bmp" in it under the same directory as your program's executable. For example, say your program is called "demo.exe", under the folder "Debug". Your "Debug" folder should contain "demo.exe" and "data" (the data folder has crate.bmp in it). Also, do make sure the filename is correct, matching what the code says (in this case, crate.bmp). Also, try different options when you save/convert your image, try perhaps saving it as a 16, 24, or 32 bit image. If I remember correctly, the NeHe tutorial there was using 24bit. That may or may not make a difference, but sometimes it does. Also make sure your image size is "power of 2" meaning, 256x256, 512x512, etc.
