Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for a lightweight library that provides good looking UI
controls (let's call it "eye candy", I don't really need more the
powerful controls like grids, etc) for a small WinForms application.  I
would typically use DevExpress for the job, but in this case, I would
not be able to justify the several MB increase in size just for a bit of
flair.  

I'm looking to use it on some small utilities which will probably be
released for free, so I'm looking for something relatively cheap / free
(GPL is a possibility).  For some reason, I'm having trouble finding
something which fits the bill, even though I remember running across a
few candidates years back...  

What would you guys recommend in this case?  Is there something
lightweight that's worthwhile (please point me in the right direction),
or should I just stick to plain old WinForms controls?  

Regards,
	
Daniel.
