Where to start

I know making a game is very hard that is why I was wondering where to start on making graphics? Like land, houses, trees, ect. Also what languages should I start to study for gaming programing? But the main thing I would like to know is where to start on making graphics. I would really appreciate the help and thanxs.

I would start by reading some basic tutorials before you start working with graphics.

ur in a java forum...so use java lol. game programming is.....weird. if u know the basics of any programming language, then just plan ur game out nicely. if u dont know programming, learn java. sun has a nice java tut. learning gui and threading is a lot to learn after u learn the basics, and gui and threading most of the time is not taught in schools.

go play Zork on the internet, then make a game like it. Once youve done that, try making a game with basically the same storyline, but make the program open another window and take mouseclicks.
