Using PyQT with QT Designer

[Michael Staggs]

Thanks for the manual. I will look into it but all the examples are
probably c++. Ive tried zetcode and some of the other tutorials.

That's the problem though. It is exactly how I want it in designer. It's
perfect as it is in designer when I preview it. Here is a screenshot of the
preview: http://i.imgur.com/ULRolq8.png

The problem isn't that I can't design it in QT Designer. It is designed
just like I want it. The problem is, when I try to follow zetcode and other
tutorials about how to import and use my form as designed by qt designer
and run through pyuic4.... it doesn't seem to even notice my ui file...and
certainly isnt acting on it.

I posted my code above where I was trying anything just to get it to use
that ui I designed in qt designer.....so far to no avail
