Best GUI design software?

[NeverDie]

I'm tentatively planning to use tkinter, because it leverages python, but I'm open to alternatives if there's anything better.  wxWidgets also looks capable as well as cross-platform.

Come to think of it, these days a browser based GUI is the only kind that makes sense, especially for home automation.  So, would that pretty much imply building the GUI using java script?

HTML5 / Javascript. Then you can access it frm most everything.
 
what's the backend? scope?

Initially for writing my own irrigation controller GUI.
 
PyJamas sounds interesting.  It compiles from Python into Javascript/AJAX.  Something like that might be easiest and yet still versatile enough.

gotcha. Design software would be for the design phase, something like Illustrator or OmniGraffle or Visio.
you're actually building a UI.
have fun! don't forget about Mozilla's developer version of Firefox (#FF10 ! ) and FireBug when you get the UI up.
