"On the 2008 GTK+ Hackfest in Berlin, Imendio's GTK+ hackers presented their vision of GTK+'s future and the reasons why they think that GTK+ has to make a step forward, embrace change and break ABI compatibility. Other GTK+ developers have also voiced their opinions, listing parts of GTK+ that need serious love, but state that they don't require breakage. Whether or not these are the things that will mark the road to GTK+ 3.0, almost all of them need attention. And give hints to the shape of things to come."

GIMP and Inkscape are GTK, and they look decent, but they don't look native. Lots of controls behave differently (combo box is one) and the file dialog is not the native one. I could not give a UI like that to a paying customer.
Audacity is native because it uses wxWidgets. But wxWidgets does not use GTK when running on Windows. It uses the native Windows controls, so it looks fine.
Google earth?
