Tried Pip Install PySide...

only these python versions are supported: [(2, 6), (2, 7), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4)]
@zartyblartfast this isn't really related to the code. Seems you were having trouble trying to install the older PySide 1.x in combination with having a newer python3 installed. I have added a new PySide2 version of the code so you can install PySide2 on your system
