You have already got a lot of answer to your questions, but I would like 
to add just another voice: I started developing apps under win32 using 
gtk+; nowaday I love to code under linux, but my apps are generally run 
under windows - just the same code for libraries and for gui, built 
natively with both mingw and msvc7. Users can choose their preferred 
theme for gtk apps under windows, and until now I didn't have any 
serious problem (that is, gtk codes are really cross-platform). Probably 
I am in a lucky condition, because all my apps deals with scientific 
calculations and data display (in numeric or graphical form) and are 
written in C.
