i'm new in pygame and i'm trying to make my first excercise with following tutorial in pygame website,but when i'm try to execute the program, the idle will show error like this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Python25/game/1st project", line 12, in <module>
    xxx=pygame.image.load(ikon)
error: Couldn't open pic\pic2

That sounds like you don't have a directory pic\ from your working directory.... try doing an os.getcwd() to see what you're current working directory is, and try changing the path accordingly so that IDLE can find that path

It looks like your missing the extension.
ie. *.jpg *.gif *.png etc.
