Tkinter image problems

[Chris]

Hi, I posted a few days ago about problems getting images to work in Tkinter

The Tkinter test routine runs fine, but when I try to load in images it 
won't work

Here's how i'm loading a TIFF:
from Tkinter import *

class GF_control:
    def __init__(self):
        # Initialize TK
        self.root = Tk()
        self.root.config(height=300, width=400)

        # Load image
        p = PhotoImage()
        p.config(file='bla.tif')

        # Make label
        splash = Label(self.root)
        splash.pack()

        self.root.mainloop()

if 1:
    f = GF_control()

And here's the error I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 18, in ?
  File "<stdin>", line 11, in __init__
  File "/usr/lib/python2.1/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 2951, in configure
    self.tk.call((self.name, 'config') + res)
TclError: couldn't recognize data in image file "bla.tif"

Here's the error for the same, using a PNG instead:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 18, in ?
  File "<stdin>", line 11, in __init__
  File "/usr/lib/python2.1/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 2951, in configure
    self.tk.call((self.name, 'config') + res)
TclError: couldn't recognize data in image file "bla.png"

And the error for a JPG:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 18, in ?
  File "<stdin>", line 11, in __init__
  File "/usr/lib/python2.1/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 2951, in configure
    self.tk.call((self.name, 'config') + res)
TclError: couldn't recognize data in image file "bla.jpg"

All of the images load fine in GIMP
