Just need a kick in the right direction here.
I'm quite new to making addons, but i've succesfully created 2 simple ones so far. Both do nothing more than generating lists of items and some functionality behind it (like generating a new list or play an audio stream).
What i'd like to do now is create an addon with a more complex layout then just a list. Something that look like this:

A frame on the right with a list; a visual/video in the top-left and information about the video in the bottom-left. When i try to find information how to do this i only find pages about skinning, but it is unclear to me how i create the skin/template/layout and then interact with it from my python script. Can someone give me a kick in the right direction?
