I did. Well, they say, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!". To me, these are mostly awesomely ugly, ugly, ugly. Shot 1: Ugly gray field followed by shot2: ugly black on gray. These first two examples look like Windows 95/8 -- ie, 20th century look, not 21st.
Based on this page, wxwidgets would be a regression from tk. Current tkinter on Windows looks like it use native Windows windows. IDLE on WinXP looks like a WinXP app; on Windows 7 it looks like a Windows 7 app. If wxwidgets/wxpython does the same, this page hides it very well. And this is apparently an update from 'the old Screen shots' page.
The above is based on presented looks. I have no idea whether, to what extent, and how easily one could duplicate the layout and performance of the examples with tk. There are, however, other problems with wx that I have and will point out in other posts.
