I couldn't find any tutorials on it, so I have to ask. To animate in C++, do I have to install allegro? Also, how would I load an object onto the screen and make it move, and switch between different pictures of the frame.

Or SDL, or another similar graphics library for C++.

For SDL: http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/lesson20/index.php
Personally I don't use allegro so I don't know where to find good tutorials.

Please do not ask which is better, search the forums for the many debates that have already taken place.
