Hi,
  I am just started working on X windows. I tried to do some stuff on Images but
got some problems. Can some one please send me examples on Image creation, etc.
I was able to create an image but, irrespective of what I have in data, it
displays a white screen. I tried using XPutPixel and initializing the data 
argument before creating the image both the times I get a white screen. I was 
trying to put gray scale in the image.
	I think the problem is the visual(second) argument I am passing. I dint 
really understand it. The way  I was using XCreateImage was 
	xi=XCreateImage(display,use_dynamic,8,XYPixmap,0,data,256,256,8,0);

I am working on a Sparc 1+ (Sun) and using Open Windows 2.0
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.
		Thank you.
