I thought i told that in my first post but apparently i didn't.
I need java because it's the only decent programming language that i
can do at the moment. I can do php but that isn't good for
applications. Also i could learn Python but i rather skip it all
together and get strait to c and c++ but that won't happen anytime
soon.

I don't know python but what's wrong with getters and setters?

You could make yumex exactly like those mockups and will look that
fancy when a fitting (gtk or qt) system theme is installed. by default
it should adopt the system gtk theme but making theme capabilities for
the application (yumex) itself might be a good idea as well.
