Is this Technique possible

[Stefano Mtangoo]

When you think of Media player, you need beautiful look n feel.
I know GIMP can do alot. But Skin in wxPthon? I don't think it is possible. So I thought and thought then I came with this Idea.
Create panel with Image as background and then Load wxBitmaps and coloured wxStaticTexts and et al

Is this technique practical and possible?
