If someone could take a look at the source on the following url and could tell me why it doenst shows the picture (compiled with visual studio 2005) i appreciate it. The picture is in the map Data (which is in the same map as the compiled executable).
source files:
You need to enable texturing before any calls to textured objects using glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D), if you then want to draw some untextured objects then call glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D) and draw them. Remember that OpenGL is a state machine and anything that you set will stay the same until you implicitly change it.
So in your main.cpp where you say
Hope that helps.

Thanks for your reply, that worked somehow someway. Also, what do you recommend learning first, OpenGL or DirectX ?
I would recomend learning openGL first.
Simply because when you know it, you will know the true nature of realtime 3d graphics.
I know way to may persons that works professionally on DX and doesn't know how realtime 3d graphics work (ever played "Traitors gate 2:cypher").
I beleve this is because DX encapsulates a lot of the things that openGL does not, thus sheilding the user from a valubale learning experience.
