Remember this is just an opinion but I feel that the apprentice of Gtk#
applications look very nice on Linux distros like Suse, Fedora, or
Ubuntu but it always seems to that when I look a one of my Gtk#
applications on Windows it does not look nearly as nice in a addition to
missing stock images that seem to be available in all Linux distros.
Maybe I'm doing something wrong but that is how a feel about the
appearance of Gtk# on Windows.
I am of the opinion that aesthetics are important in application
development so if I am able to make my applications look nicer on
Windows I'm going to try.
Thanks
