Juce uses its antialiased drawing code to draw the knob. This requires
no image resources and enables displaying the rotation precisely, it
can be scaled and it's themable (by changing the colours). I think it's
a good way to do it. I don't like realistic-looking knobs very much, to
me it looks always very 90s-Windows-VST-interface-ish, but that's a
personal preference thing I guess.

In my experience it's hard to write code that draws something as cute and smooth
as the phat knob. Ah, actually, I think that JUCE has that.. Needs checking. Also, the phat knob, with its large orange/blue
border provides better
visualization IMO. I am however quite sad that in both cases, phat and libgxw,
no SVG source is provided.
That's the knob animation I use in nekobee. I was going to try to
recreate it in pure cairo - at the moment the "new" cairo knobs just use
cairo surfaces to blit the appropriate frame of animation.
