My ranking would be:

#1: wx: Because it uses native controls on pretty much all platforms.
#2: qt: Because for a non-native UI, it at least does a good job of getting 
the look & feel right. And I've heard that the API is nice.

#84,259,254: gtk: Because it doesn't give a rat's ass about native anything, 
plus it's just plain ugly (read: big-n-chunky) on all platforms, even Gnome.
