I can't right now, and am not sure I'll be able to. I will if I'm
allowed to.
However, I can shared several sources of good information and
examples, including full working apps:
* The wxPython Wiki
http://wiki.wxpython.org/
There are some good starter tutorials here with sample code. Not as
complete as I'd like and sometimes hard to find your way around,
but this is one of the most important resources you'll find.
* the wxGlade tutorial
http://wxglade.sourceforge.net/tutorial.php
There are several tools for making wxPython coding easier. Boa and
Pythoncard are frameworks/IDEs. I tried them, but for various
reasons decided not to use them. wxGlade and wxDesigner are GUI
code generators, not IDEs: you lay out the interface, it generates
the code, and you use this to build your GUI.
I chose wxGlade, used the tutorial, studied the code, and then began
learning how to build an application around that.
* Cornice
http://web.tiscali.it/no-redirect-tiscali/agriggio/cornice.html
This is a cross-platform image browser written in wxPython and
partially built with wxGlade. The source code for this has been
extremely helpful.
Other good examples of wxPython apps built with wxGlade can be found
here. I looked at many of these:

Hope this helps.
