Question

OK, so iv almost completed my program for my project but I cant get a BUTTON_EVT to work which if i am honest should be the easiest thing todo. I have the buttons on my program which represent the hardware and I have created a def function for them to appear on the OGL canvas.

Edited from your last comment. Use this (using your own images):

def OnClickRouter(self, event):
    image=wx.Image('cat.jpg', wx.BITMAP_TYPE_JPEG)
    self.frame = bucky(None, image)
    self.frame.Show()

If you call bucky() this way you must also fix the class signature:

class bucky(wx.Frame):      
  # Creating the outer window/frame
  def __init__(self, parent, image=None):
    wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, -1,'Karls Network Tool', size=(900,700))

    my_image = image if image else wx.Image("myself.bmp", wx.BITMAP_TYPE_BMP) 

    ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
    # Button images
    buttonOneRouter = my_image.ConvertToBitmap()
    self.buttonOneRouter = wx.BitmapButton(panel, -1, buttonOneRouter, pos=(20,340))
    self.buttonOneRouter.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.OnClickRouter)
    ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Then you can see that after clicking the buttonOnerouter what actually you are doing is opening a new frame. The left figure is what I get when I run the program, the right one is after I click and enter again my name (I simplified a bit your code. Thats why you only see one button at the bottom instead of 4):

If you want to put my cat in the canvas instead of in the button there is still some work to do. I recommend to you to give a look at the wxPython demo. In the miscellaneous group of examples you have one called OGL that shows how to do that.
