you can use any graphic program like Adobe Photoshop, paint shop pro etc to make the graphics, just make sure that they are saved in BMP format.

If your looking for clip art type sites with lots of images and such that you can download and use, then search the internet, i don't know any specific sites, but i know they're a lot of them.

dthdabomb89,
You can use programs like PhotoImpact, Photoshop or Paintshop Pro. For a free Image editor try The Gimp it does most things that Photoshop will do but for free.

If you want a good place for icons, you can have a look here: http://interfacelift.com

It has a massive collection of great looking icons.

I'm not very artistic so tend to use them instead for my players as I can't draw or design for peanuts.

You will need an icon browser program to extract the icon files to an image file. I just use Photoshop to then do the editing.

Hope that helps.
