Hi Brett!
I am assuming that you want to develop a GUI for DOS as DJGPP 
generates programs which run in M$DOS . But your subject says 
"Win32 Graphic UI". I am a bit confused. Do you mean you want to 
write a DOS GUI which looks like Window$ GUI.

The Allegro <http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/> game 
programming library has great graphics support (extensive graphics 
drawing and manipulation functions etc..)and comes with full 
source code (so if you want you can have a look and see how all 
the graphics functions are written etc). Also Allegro has GUI 
support. And there are DirectX versions of allegro available as well.

So you can use the allegro lib for graphics. If you want a much 
more improved GUI you can try DEGUI 
<http://huizen.dds.nl/~deleveld/index.htm> which is based on 
allegro, so you'll have to get allegro first.

Strange Creations (please see whether it's 
<http://strangecreations.com> or 
<http://www.strangecreations.com>) is another site where you can 
find a lot of info about graphics drawing etc... .

Hope This Help's!
