ProjectCenter (at SVN) support the in-window menu theme, there are some other problems with native Open/Save panels and Make tool. I'm trying to solve the problem with Open/Save panels and I think I will have the solution in next days (this is a problem with WinUXTheme). The problem with make tool have years and I don't have idea where is the bug. Riccardo (Mottola) has been solved the problem recompiling GNUstep.

But you can get this at: http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/gnustep/plugins/themes/WinUXTheme/ This is a theme that take the colors and pixmaps of the current Windows theme and make (dynamically) a theme for GNUstep apps. You only should take care about the behaviour of your app when use the in-window menu. I wrote an entirely section of this in a manual I will release soon, but this is in spanish. However I can add a translation of this section at GNUstep wiki. For other platforms you should use other theme, for example the GTK theme or the Silver theme. See: http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Themes In Windows you can set the theme for your app with the nsis installer. On GNU/Linux and *BSD there are different ways to do this.
