Hi Ian! I installed the pillow-pil package from the ā€˜packagesā€™ tab, but, even after installing it, I get an import error whenever I run the ā€˜main.pyā€™ file. I get the below error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File ā€œmain.pyā€, line 2, in
from PIL import Image, ImageTK
ImportError: cannot import name ā€˜ImageTKā€™ from ā€˜PILā€™ (/home/runner/Day67100Days/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/PIL/init.py)

Nvm. Used ChatGPT to figure it out!

Problem was that I used ā€˜ImageTKā€™ instead of ā€˜ImageTkā€™.

Also please note that the video for this day67 incorrectly states to use ā€˜ImageTKā€™.

Great spot @SixftOne-MLH Iā€™ll pass this information on so it can be edited!

When I run Davidā€™s solution code it says ā€˜container is not definedā€™ :confused:

8

yupā€¦ rightā€¦ the solution is not working, the png files are missing, tkinter seems like a really nice thing to skip -.-

UPDATE
fiddled with it and with the help of chatgpt I got it workingā€¦ super weird this tkinterā€¦

This took me a long time to figure out. In addition to the problem in the video mentioned above, it also says in the video to use Image.open like this:

image = tk.PhotoImage(Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/charlotte.jpg") )

I ran into two problems with this. The first is I need to change packages from tk (tkinter) to ImageTk. The second is I can no longer scale my image using .subsample(). ChatGPT told me to use image.resize() instead, and apply it in between the two functions above. End code that worked:

image = Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/charlotte.jpg")

image = image.resize((image.width // 5, image.height // 5))

image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)

Here is what I did and it shows images really nice . Got the idea and help from @Capresis and chatGPT:

import tkinter as tk
from PIL import Image , ImageTk

window = tk.Tk()
window.title("Guess Who")
window.geometry("300x200")

hello = tk.Label(text = "Guess Who")
hello.pack()

def guesswho():
  input = text.get("1.0","end").lower().strip()
  hello["text"] = "Guess Who"
  if input == "charlotte":
    canvas.itemconfig(container, image = tk_charlotte)
  elif input == "gerald":
    canvas.itemconfig(container, image = tk_gerald)  
  elif input == "katie":
    canvas.itemconfig(container, image = tk_katie)
  elif input == "mo":
    canvas.itemconfig(container, image = tk_mo)
  else:
    hello["text"] = "Image not found"


    
text = tk.Text(window ,height =  1 ,width = 25)
text.pack()

button = tk.Button(text = "Find", command = guesswho)  
button.pack()

canvas = tk.Canvas(window, width = 300, height = 200)
canvas.pack()

charlotte = Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/charlotte.jpg")
resized_charlotte = charlotte.resize((100, 100), Image.LANCZOS)
tk_charlotte = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized_charlotte)

gerald = Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/gerald.jpg")
resized_gerald = gerald.resize((100, 100), Image.LANCZOS)
tk_gerald = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized_gerald)

katie = Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/katie.jpg")
resized_katie = katie.resize((100, 100), Image.LANCZOS)
tk_katie = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized_katie)

mo = Image.open(".tutorial/Guess Who/mo.jpg")
resized_mo = mo.resize((100, 100), Image.LANCZOS)
tk_mo = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized_mo)


container = canvas.create_image(150,50,image=None)

tk.mainloop()

As Dave (and also some of my friends) said we shouldnā€™t be focusing on mastering tkinter, so I instantly regret spending too much time on these days 66-69 :crying_cat_face:
