It's much better these days. There's a packaged installer at:

http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/stable.html

so you can just ask your users to download and install that. About 4 MBytes.

The installer lets you put the runtime anywhere on your system and
then uses a registry key so that your program can find the DLLs at
runtime. You don't need to statically link.

You can't use cygwin: you have to use mingw or the cygwin environment
in native mode. glib provides most of the stuff that you might need
from cygwin.dll.

It ships with a default theme on win32 that mimics XP or 2000 pretty
closely. On NT and 98/95 you get the default GTK look (I think).

you can use other themes of course, but you're right, you should check
the licence.
