Dear Moumunna,
There are many ways to include graphics into LaTeX. The following are
some of the many~:
1. Using "texdraw" --- this is more or less like the kid's software
package, I forget the name, which uses a mouse and uses it to draw
pictures using a mouse; we had it in the old DOS days;
2. Using "XY-pic", a very powerful package; see the latest download
from the xypic homepage and the manual therein
3. as encapsulated postscript using the "graphicx" package.
Help for all of these exist under the tree "texmf/doc/latex"; please
make an appropriate search in the directories for tools, graphics or
generic.
Hope this helps, and more queries, if needed.
