I'm new to QBASIC and we are starting to use it in my computer class. In fact we are using it to make graphics, and I am trying to create a Scooby Doo face; but I don't know where to start. Can anyone help me?

well, first you gotta set the screen mode: this can be done with screen (http://qbasicnews.com/qboho/qckscreen.shtml) once you're in, you can use a host of graphical commands to draw things on to the screen.
por ejemple:

http://qbasicnews.com/qboho/qckcircle.shtml
http://qbasicnews.com/qboho/qckpset.shtml

another example:
screen 7 ' 320x200x16c
line (0, 0)-(319, 199), 4
this draws a line from coordinate (0, 0) to (319, 199). you get the picture
Screen 7 should be avoided - 1000101 - 02-10-2003
A *lot* of newer graphics chips do *not* support the old EGA low-res modes. SCREEN 7 (mode Dh) is one of them. I have a couple 'newer' cards which do not support them. You may find that the ones at your school do not either. SCREEN 13 (mode 13h) is a better choice, it is still supported by all cards and allows for 256 colours instead of 16.

TIP:
1. Get a scooby Doo image over the net
2. Save as 235 BMP in 320*200
3. Load with CosmoX,DQB or any lib you like.. :*)

Depending on the teacher, that will either get full marks or zero.

I guess the teacher expects them to find a scooby doo picture and break it up into its sub-parts of circles, ovals, and lines on graph paper. Then write or type down the coordinates and add in LINE / CIRCLE / PAINT / DRAW to it.
