Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Need a tutorial

[TommyK]

All of the LaTeXing I've done thus far has been sans graphics. I've been lucky that way, I guess. However, I am afraid that at some point an author will ask me to insert a graphic and/or create one myself. When that author does ask for graphics, I don't want to use precious time teaching myself on the fly. At this point, those that I may be asked to create would be an (x,y) coordinate with grids and / or sine waves, etc.

What is a good tutorial for teaching myself the artsy side of LaTeX?
