So Ive been looking around Google and Youtube and such but I can't seem to find any good allegro tutorials. If you know of a good allegro tutorial please post it. Even if you don't have a tutorial to post please share how you learned Allegro yourself, would be greatly appreciated.

Well, it's far from good, but it's available.

Yes, it's a video tutorial, and no the special page for it isn't up anymore. This is to be rewritten.
And, all my games/apps (save lenxion, which will be rewritten eventually) is open source.
Also, I have some incomplete tutorials on my site. The Rawr Rinth one is mainly stepping through the basics, though, and not really touching on anything Allegro-specific.

I mainly just learned from reading through the quickreference (

Yea ive seen your videos on youtube but they never really explained Allegro in-depth for the most part.
Although I will be checking out the Allegro source on your website; Ill let you know if I can learn anything off of them.
EDIT: This looks useful as well >>

Ive seen the loomsoft one (since its the first link on google when you search Allegro), it had some good info but didn't look to worthwhile. However I will read over it some more later on.
As for the Allegro manual thank you for posting that, it looks pretty detailed.

Many things become very obvious when you look at the documentation of your API, the instructions usually tell you how to initiate the API, and then you can take it from there
