Rewriting it is certainly not worth it as this point in time, just
having it encapsuled in a class is already more then enough.

I think it would be much more imporant to first get the new GUI into
action before touching gui code itself, ie. create a new start screen
with simple "Start", "Multiplayer", "Quit", move from there to other
screens. See:

Refactoring the gui code into being more OO can still be relativly
easily be done at a later point when necessary.

Enum's please, defines are rather evil and unnecesarry in C++, unless
of course you need them for #ifdef's.
