There are two ways a class instance can be created. LibwiiGui uses both methods. When you want a class to be able to be accessed by any other function, you will want to create it with an asterisk, which declares a pointer to your class. You will want to use this for your main GuiWindow, which should contain the background, and every other window (these other windows will be your menus). You also will want to initially set it to NULL for safety's sake.

If you have a class that is only relavent to the function you are in (e.g. a menu) you will want to declare the instance inside the function:
