hey, im just starting to get into doing stuff with gfx and was wondering if someone could help me a bit with the different names and lingo of things and maybe point me to a few neat backround tricks

Welcome here to the gd section.
I think we are known for being kinda harsh and maybe rude.
There have been a lot of new people joining here lately.
- But don't be afraid and get scared away, we (some of us ) are just trying to help.
I can't point out background tricks, but I can suggest reading some tutorials!

Good luck and have fun!
