What's a simple library that will allow me to make a simple form with buttons, pictures, texts, and graphs?
 
I haven't used it in quite a while, but when I was in school, we used Tk with Python for creating a GUI:

http://docs.python.org/library/tk.html

I know that doesn't sound like a very strong recommendation, and it isn't. Python would not be my first choice for GUI creation, but I'm curious if there are other, better recommendations out there.

wxWidgets has bindings for Python.

So does Qt.

If you are writing for Ubuntu you might want to look at GTK bindings.
 
I've used Tk as well. I had always meant to go and fool with Qt, especially now that they opened up their usage licenses.
 
Hoping not to hijack this thread:

I've never done an GUI, but I'd like to be able to set up some simple interfaces as the front end for some utility tools of my own, how do PyQt and Tk compare? I guess I'm going to need something easy to learn with plenty of documentation and examples.

Once I've learned the basics of making GUIs, would it be advisable to use some sort of point'n'click tool for developoing GUIs? Something free to use (and reliable).

Eventually, are there any good tutorials (websites, pdf, videos, ...) out there for developign GUIs? I've been googling about that, but I'm afraid I'm not really sure what to look for.

Thank you in advance! 🙂

^ Follow that and read one of the comments about how to use QtDeveloper. I got this setup so fast following that site's instructions 🙂
