I don't see us using a standard toolbar, our big fear will be that we don't want to lose the pizzaz we have under Windows and have a bog standard looking Mac app, it will just look like a poor cousin of our windows app then.


It. Doesn't. Matter.

Your users are not judging the app against your Windows version, they are judging it against all their other Mac apps. You are not your users, and your "big fear" is based on a misplaced perspective, that of the app's developers.

Pizazz is all very well but if it actually makes the app less usable, less standard and just plain weird to use, your users will judge the app negatively.
