1. An IDE, where you write, troubleshoot and run your programs from. I like PythonWin 2.3.4 check:

2. A library to run Windows GUI stuff with. wxPython is very good. Also has many examples. Check out:

3. A library for Graphics thingies. Use PIL the Python Imaging Library, comes with many nice sample files, from:

4. Something completely different for 3D imaging, with lots of groovy samples. Check VPython at:
http://vpython.org/

5. Wanna go nuts? Look at tons of Python resources at:

These downloads are free, make sure you match your version of Python.
