I don't have any examples off-hand. It also depends on what you mean
by "nice" since it's so terribly subjective. If you're talking about
something native-looking and fits in with the OS, Qt is very good with
that. If you're looking for something classy, looks nice and unique
(and insert other common marketing adjectives), you'll have to do it
on your own. It's the same with other toolkits, any other look than
their default one you'll have to do it on your own. What I do know
though, or at least from impression, is that Qt makes it easy. Your
options are: Qt Style Sheets [1], subclass QStyle [2], and Qt Quick
[3].
