GTK Windows Impersonator unleashed

Please forgive me for posting a Windows related announcement, I hope you make an exception and post this one. IMHO, it is rather important given the fact that a lot of GTK/Gnome apps (Sodipodi, Gaim, Workrave, ...) are being ported to Windows these days...

GTK-Wimp is a Windows GTK theme that mimicks a Windows native look and feel by delegating the drawing to the Windows API, resulting in near perfect desktop integration, especially when you run XP. GTK-Wimp respects your system font and colors. Have a look at the results!

I did a quick test. But it'll be outdated quickly when gaim win32 a6 arrives. Code rewrites and GUI redesign are already in progress in CVS.

Generally, the buttons and checkboxes all appear fine.

Logon box: Looks good

Account Editor: Looks good

Buddy List: tabs look fine but the bottom buttons are all white. Tho that'll soon disappear when I get around to testing the a6 release (or when someone points me to a nightly build of the CVS code).

Coversation windows: Tab is okay, but general layout of that tab 'window' is off... the bg color is white like the buddy list's bottom buttons.

Anything else?
