the "insert" method is used to insert text into canvas text items; the
syntax is

    canvas.insert(tag, position, text)

I'm not sure what you're saying here; did you get errors when you did
this, or did this eliminate whatever errors you got when you created the
image?

is that a PIL Image object or a Tkinter Image object?  if you're using PIL,
you need to use the ImageTk module to convert the PIL image to a format
suitable for Tkinter.

if you're using Tkinter images, you really want the PhotoImage class.  Image
is just a base class; it doesn't really provide any behaviour.

can you perhaps post the error message?
