[Tutor] Question about GUI applications.

[Nathaniel Trujillo]

I just wrote the following GUI application. How do I get rid of the 7k in
the upper left hand corner and how to I put other stuff there like say a
picture of someone. Thanks for the help.

Here is the GUI application. It is called mad_lib.py.py

# Mad Lib
# Create a story based on user input
from tkinter import *
class Application(Frame):
    """ GUI application that creates a story based on user input. """
    def __init__(self, master):
        """ Initialize Frame. """
        super(Application, self).__init__(master)
        self.grid()
        self.create_widgets()
    def create_widgets(self):
        """ Create widgets to get story infomation and to display story. """
        # create instruction label
        Label(self, text = "Enter information for a new story").grid(row =
0, column = 0, columnspan = 2, sticky = W)

        Label(self, text = "Person: ").grid(row = 1, column = 0, sticky = W)
