u can't include ur pictures and sounds in ur exe, what u can do is have them in the same folder as the exe or have paths to the folders where u saved the other files, otherwise to make an exe is just
Run---->Generate stand-alone program

In Turing, click the "Run" menu. Then click "Generate stand-alone program". A new execuatble will be added to the files directory with the same name as the file.

So I just have to have all the files in the same folder?... so if I wanted to send it to anyone zipping all the shit together would be best then?

yep, after creating ur exe, put everything u need in the same folder, and it would work, even though it would be unorganized.
You could put all music files in a folder called "music" and when u load the music go
Music.PlayFile ("//music//filename.mp3")
I think that would be more organized, just be sure to zip all folders with the exe.
