I don't know if this is what you want to hear, but BlitzMax has some really neat builtin texturing helper functions, so that you can simply do this:

' Variables
Local thePixmap:TPixmap
Local theTexture:Int

' First set up openGL
bglCreateContext(800, 600)
glTexEnvf(GL_TEXTURE_ENV, GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE, GL_MODULATE)
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D)

' Load the texture
thePixmap = LoadPixmap("incbin::picture.jpg")
theTexture = bglTexFromPixmap(thePixmap)

BlitzGL contains a few other nice tools, such as bglCreateContext - Just check the help on BlitzGL. Hope this helps.
