How to capture mouse input as freehand sketch then save to bmp file?

[wcglorioso]

Hi all,

Anybody here who can help me in developing a freehand drawing program?
The pen would be the mouse while the paper would be a small window with a with background.
I would like to capture the mouse coordinates, translate it into freehand lines, then save it to a bitmap file.
I am having difficulty in dealing with graphics.
The saving into a bitmap file is way to hard for me to figure out.

Regards,

Okay what you can try to do is o read about DIB and how to use and manage them, then use some api like "setpixel" to do so
