I don't know because I haven't really started Allegro. But there are a lot
of example programs that come with Allegro and could help you. You may refer
Allegro FAQ (which is pretty good) also.

Better start with some example program from Allegro and try to put your own
picture instead of a default one, then change gfx mode, etc etc. Do it step
by step and see what's going on. Refer to the FAQ -- it worths.
