"Look worse" can be addressed through extensive means: through theming (via Tile, which can now be easily used in Tkinter; see http://tkinter.unpy.net/wiki/TileWrapper); and through other aspects of UI design, such as color, fonts, and even use of icons. A pyGtk or wxPython application that uses old-school Gnome icons, for instance, will look ugly. It's quite possible to make an attractive Tkinter application using modern, stylish icons that even blends in reasonably well on a specific platform (I've done it). -- Kevin Walzer Code by Kevin http://www.codebykevin.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
