the example on that page attaches the image to a widget instance, not a canvas object handle (which is an integer; unlike user-defined classes, integers don't allow you to attach arbitrary attributes to them). if you just want to display a single image, just attach it to self: BackgroundFile = PhotoImage(file="Background.GIF") Background = self.MainFrame.create_image(0, 0, image=BackgroundFile) self.image = BackgroundFile # keep a reference! if you want to display multiple images on the canvas, use a dictionary or a list to hold active image references. </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
