When I see and import line like that, I think -- yikes!

Remember, "Namespaces are one honking great idea. Let's do more of those!"

I much prefer something like:

from app.view import buttonGraphics

...

>         self.up_bm = wx.BitmapFromImage(buttonGraphics.up_img)

It just seems so much cleaner...

If that still feels like too much typing, you can use "import ... as" to 
give buttonGraphics a shorter name, like "BG"
