I have been learing QB since 5 months and I can`t create nothin good!

What should I do. :evil:
Where have you been learning your QB from? which tutorial or book?
Just create. Nobody creates "nothin' good"

The first two years of my programming history was making retarded "go left, go right" games. Just make whatever you feel like making.
For me my first one was a car racing game, the (almost) only thing what i finished so far 4 years before :lol:

Switch to Screen 9 (If you really code in QB, not FreeBasic), learn PCOPY, then do a little of INKEY$ to move a dot around the screen. It will gave you some ideas Big Grin (For me especially this was what i did at first, but in SCREEN 7, and with a small bright - green rectangle. I can still remember how happy i was seeing that i can make it running all around my screen with the numeric keys Smile )

That's true, it will give you some ideas.

By the way, you know that default cursor (the arrow pointer that moves when you move the mouse)? I once created my own in QB using just LINEs! This was before I knew about teh almighty DRAW command. Then, I used INKEY$ (since I can't use the mouse and I hate not using my own code) to get the arrow keys if they were pressed and move it properly. This was in SCREEN 7, by the way. Smile
I am bord right now so can someone teach me how can I make a square rolling in a end less repeatless background.
