GTP's look like morelia, ETB's don't...haha. ETB's have a ton of upper labial heat pits, as seen in chuck's example. and their head shape is just different from a python... those are the main two differences. amazing similar though, when you figure the geographical separation.

Easiest way without stealing a lot of pictures is
WWW.GOOGLE.COM - images (at the top)- green tree python -then- emerald tree boa.

Re: Noob Question
There's plenty of differences.
IMO the main differences are that boas are live bearers (and thus ticker, robust if you will) and pythons lay eggs (thinner, more delicate).
ETBs and GTPs are strikingly fascinating due to their continental separation yet striking similarities.
