So, I am in a confuzzled state of mind right now. I have a Qt program running with a GUI thread and a communication thread. The communication thread can change up elements in the GUI thread, but I am stuck with QPixMaps. They can't be changed outside of the GUI thread. So, my question: How would I set a label's pixmap outside? Would QEvents work? (No idea on how to use them)

FYI, your background thread that modifies the GUI is almost certainly wrong. I don't think QT's UI is thread safe. I'm actually almost positive it isn't, I don't know of any UI toolkit that is thread safe.
