[Tkinter-discuss] problem loading images

[Jeff Epler]

You need to convert the image file to a PhotoImage using
ImageTk.PhotoImage()

Something like so:
> >>> from Tkinter import *
> >>> from PIL import Image, ImageTk
> >>> img = Image.open('image.gif')
> >>> root = Tk()
  >>> tkImg = ImageTk.PhotoImage(img)
  >>> button2 = Button(root, image=tkImg)
