I never use QT Designer and I've always done my interfaces by hand. I feel 
like this helped me to understand and learn Qt and KDE's widgets much more 
quickly, because I immediately saw the effects of each little change I made.

If you're in a hurry to get your project out the door, however, there's 
nothing wrong with using the Designer. :-)
