i am making a arkanoid clone. i want to make a tile editor and i was wondering is there any source code examples on the internet so i can get ideas. thanks in advance ructions

There''s a SourceForge tile editor project called Tile Studio.

The code is in Delphi I believe but it would be a good starting point.

http://tilestudio.sourceforge.net/

There is also one one the Ionware website written by Daniel Protopopov.

Anyway, always remember, Google is your friend. :-)

All the best,
