You can convert the PNG file to a XPM file (in Unix you can use convert for 
this). You just need to pythonize the syntax:
change e.g. 
static char *match[] = {
/* columns rows colors chars-per-pixel */
to:
mathch[] = [
# ...

and than you can insert this xpm file into your python file. Creating a 
QPixmap with this image works with QPixmap(match).
