Hi guys

I am looking for a pretty bad ass java gui framework that perhaps Google has not alerted me to yet.

I have in the past made some pretty slick looking Desktop apps using Qt/C++

The beuty of Qt's GUI Framework is that you can use a CSS to style forms.

are there any other similar Java GUI toolkits out there? I am not a fan of implementing an applicatuib with boring 'Grey' windows 98 type UI.

Thanks in advance ;D
 
What's wrong with swing?
It does have some other themes that you can use.
 
Have a look at JavaFX. Version 2 has made some huge advancements since its initial version 1 release. The Swing framework development has been discontinued, and JavaFX will replace it as the GUI framework. Java FX v2 includes uses of css etc. Also you can code in the Java language now, where with version 1 it was all xml based.
