Of course, if you already have a way to do the 3d part, then your GUI framework really doesn't matter - Tkinter is probably the easiest one to use, wxPython give you native-looking widgets (if you're using Windows, your apps will look like other Windows apps), PyGTK+ is great if you plan to use the Gnome window manager under Linux, and PyQT is good for KDE and contains everything but the kitchen sink. Also you'll be using your left pinky /all/ the time because everything you use has "q" in it. If all you need to do is display an image and track where the mouse click/drags are happening, I'd probably use Tkinter. -HTH, Wayne
