Yes there are some concepts in regards to GUI layout that are different
from Qt and GTK.  Particularly how widgets are packed into boxes and how
they resize.  At first I didn't like the Qt model with its "spring"
spacer thing.  But I got used to it and found it was actually more
flexible than GTK's packing method.  Just a slightly different way of
thinking about layout is all.

I think the GTK bindings are a bit more comfortable in Python that Qt's
are.  Often times Qt apps turn out more like C++ apps transliterated
into Python.  They don't quite feel as "pythonic" as the GTK+ apps.

Both are excellent toolkits.  I think Qt is more complete and has more
batteries included, particularly on the other platforms.  For example,
vector graphics. GTK+ defers that to Cairo.

All that said, I still prefer GTK also.
