Hi guys. I need to create a GUI in C++ and so I would like to know if some packages like GTK are available for windows. I did go to the GTK website but I swear I was lost! I really didn't know which files to download. I really need this urgently. I need to make a GUI wherein I can place images and move them around on each other. Thanx in advance for any help

You can find GTK+ for Windows here.

There is another GUI framework, wxWidgets.

Just out of curiosity. What has GTK got over good old Visual Studio in the Windows Environment?

Yes, you need to code using GTK API. I have used GTK on Linux. For Windows programming, I have not used GTK but I did try to install the Windows version and it comes with many runtime DLLs. I don't like many runtime dlls so I switched to wxWidgets.

There are also other GUI frameworks like FOX Toolkit and FLTK. These are all cross-platform.
