In my language it's "Grafikk" or if your speaking of for example graphic designer, it's "grafisk designer".....

Yes its graphics, i don't mind GFX (I use it myself) but what i don't like is when n00bs, go "OMG I am a 1337 GFXER!", GFXER is not a word. GFX = Graphics, GFXER = Graphicser? Not a word.... theres my rant for today

Context is all to be honest, it's correct spelling is graphics, so make sure to put that in your english papers. But you can get away with gfx, graphix, grafficks or whatever in a context that doesn't require correct spellings.
