Getting started with python GUI's?

Hey, I've got a script I've written that I'd like to make a GUI for. I'm just not sure where to start. Are there any good code examples that show how to do simple Maya GUIs with python? Also not sure whether I need PyQT, or QT Designer, or what. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

For an example of a 'simple' UI in python cmds, you can look at one of the internal files:
<Maya Install>... /site-packages/maya/app/general/adjustBackgroundImageWin.py
Or
shelfEditorWindow.py

PyQt might be better if you are doing something very complicated and/or you want to be able to run it outside maya.
