Once you take the time to learn how to program, you will find these sort of questions won't be asked.
Its saying to someone "can you teach me how to say 'so long and thanks for all the fish' in perfect Japanese?"
You arent going to get far without learning the language.
And programmers get sick of writing peoples programs for them because they are too lazy to learn it properly.

but is it that complicated to write a code that does that??i mean it sounds simple to do so someone should know to write a code like that....besides how the hell to u manipulate pictures in c language.??? i know how to do some simpling declaring of integers and variables, defining, and etc, but i dont know how to write a shell with a display in the back or load a bitmap or jpeg for a video game...i wanna just run animation and create objection collisions and shit for the psp...by the way could u use headers from c alone...i know the psptoolchain got its own unique headers but how the hell do u use other headers...could u even use them...such as <iostream.h> etc...
Please read again - learn how to program and you won'y need to ask stuff like this.
It is fine to use other peoples source code, why do you think they give it out in the first place. If you do though, they expect that you say a little thanks in your comments somewhere, thats all.
What you should do is first grab the simplest sourcecode. try it, compile it and run it. Then try to understand whats going on in the sourcecode, just a simple hello world is not just one line!
Then get some sourcecode with images. look at each part of the sourcecode and start learning what each part does. Break the learning down into parts and learn it!
It really isn't that hard when you start getting into it.
remember that WE can help you write the program, but it is up to YOU to do the harder work of understanding it.
If you dont do this you will never be able to do anything else but use other peoples sourcecode, so you may as well not bother.
Hoping that helped,

Yeah, I started learning C after i learned HTML, which was a pretty hard transition... especially since i was 10. Now, 4 years from then, i still have barely gotten the hang of all of the features of C, and ive started learning C++. Its taken me 4 years to BARELY get a grasp on the langauges, but thats probably because i tried teaching myself using tutorials off the internet :P
I only ask for help after some intense googling to see if i can find the answer myself.
