I would like to display a targa image on screen. What is the correct way to do this? Does it need to be placed on a polygon, or is there an easier way? If any one has links to some code it would be greatly appreciated. super.vlad()

you can also draw the pixeldata directly with glDrawPixels.

the faster way would be to create a texture and display it on a quad

Check out the NeHe image loading tutorial for TGA images. Lesson 33 I believe.
