In addition to what Tim Golden has said (which appears to be based on another version of this project - I don't see the file structure he describes), I noticed that weather.py spawns a new thread when imported; don't do that: http://docs.python.org/library/threading.html#importing-in-threaded-code Also, you have some .pyw files with corresponding .pyc file. That's *very* strange. .pyw files are *not* modules, and Python won't import them. Don't use the .pyw extension except for your main application script (in cases when you don't want a console window to appear). Having foo.pyc and foo.pyw in the same directory, Python will always load the .pyc file, ignoring any changes in the .pyw source. -- Gabriel Genellina -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
