I want you to switch to a nice gui. You don't need to use qt or gnome. You don't need to have a super-duper-styled gui. Actually pixmaped guis are bad, so much for the moog-approach... But do yourself and your apps users a favor and follow some hig-rules. And use a layout that is re-sizable at least in some extend. And (dynamic) font-resizing is one of the small features (in a good toolkit that one comes "for free", you don't need to do anything) that improve usability a lot without adding much work...
