What resolution are you running?
Also, did you modify init.txt?

^The most recent release found here^
DF is not a 3d game. All the graphics are flat. HOWEVER, there are different layers piled up on top of each other. Those layers are called z-levels.
Read this article.

It's just a tad out of date, but still very useful.
If you find that you just can't handle the ASCII anymore...

OH YEAH we forgot to mention mass-designation!
d > b (I think) brings you to a GREAT menu for designating a whole area to dump/forbid/hide/un-dump/reclaim/un-hide everything in it. Hiding makes whatever is hid invisible, and it's great for all that stone laying around the fortress.
Also, as mentioned by Shurikane, you can use the u-h-k-m keys to manipulate how many constructions you want placed instead of placing a hundred floors individually.

First off, the wiki is your friend. Just for future reference because you won't have ANY idea what's going on.
You downloaded a folder called df_28_181_40d right? That's the latest version.
This game uses an ASCII tileset by default. You can find a bunch of other tilesets (graphics packs) by searching the wiki (link provided above).

I sacrifice them to the blood god by dumping them down narrow shafts near water so the blood/bits sail into the water.

DO IT NOW! We came up for an idea for a *megaproject* for you!
Giant dwarven face in a mountain, spewing lava out of the mouth like vomit, with water (controlled by a pressure pad in the tomb entrance) that 'crys' out of the face's eye sockets whenever you lose a dorf.
Remember to take pix.

Granted. You eat more chips to make up for the chocolate, and get fatter.

Lol, you people are keeping toady away from his end-of-month break!
Granted, all he has to do is confirm that the updates you send him work, then make them available for download, but still!

Meh, I found it searching for "link pwned", and it was new to me. ANYWAY...
