How do I make a basic GUI? I can't seem to find any tutorials on it. I want to know how to make click-able images, text, and other things overlaying an OpenGL(/DirectX?) 'world'. Maybe a crosshair thing in the center, you know?
If you're going to give me an example, I only really know C++.

Lets say I put a .bmp file in the source code's directory. How would I make it so it pops up an alert window when clicked?

There is no point in making your own GUI library, unless you are doing it for the experience.
Crazy Eddie's GUI is a quite good library, with tons of features.

Ok, someone close this. I'm using Visual C++ and Dark GDK now, it seems to have what I need.
