I used dia2code to get my feet wet with a very Visual Basic like
experience. It automatically creates a autoconf/automake project, uses
glade to design some forms and buttons and double-click to create event
handlers and wire up code behind.

If you're already familiar with C#, VB, and Win32 programming the gtk
C-based "object" model is a snap. It stays crunchy even in milk!
