Pixmap vs. Image

[Meghal Harish Varia <varia ecf utoronto ca>]

Hello,

I am trying to figure out which of GdkPixmap and GdkImage I should be
using for my app.  I am programming a gui for a scrabble game (requiring
the loading of the board image, and the letter tiles).

Also: where does Imlib fit into this scheme?
	are GtkImage and GtkPixmap wrapper functions for the Gdk
counterparts?

One final question:  what is the most efficient way to draw the board in
the background?  The only changes that may happen to the board in the game
is that it may be resized (if the window is resized).

Thanks
