Look of the app - Py2exe / wxPython

Question

So my problem is the look and feel from my application, as it looks like an old look app.

It is an wxPython application, and on python it runs fine and looks fine, but when I convert it to .exe using py2exe, the look is just bad.

Now I know that if you are using XP you need some manifest to correct it but I am in other circumstances. I'm using Windows 7, and I'm using Python 2.6 (Yes, I am including the DLL's and the Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest).

So my question is how can I solve this under these circumstances?

NOTE: I tried to search on google, but the posts I found were rather old with people using XP and older python versions so I assumed it would be different?
