Fix Tkinter Images Not Showing in Python | Tkinter GUI Images Not Displayed in Label
If you are facing an issue with your Tkinter images not showing in Python or Tkinter GUI images not being displayed in a label, don’t worry – it’s a common problem.
Here are a few steps you can take to fix this issue:
- Double-check the file path to the image. Make sure that the file path is correct and that the image file exists in the specified location.
- Check the format of the image file. Tkinter supports several image formats, including GIF, PNG, and JPEG. Make sure that your image file is in a supported format.
- Ensure that the image is being loaded and displayed correctly in your Tkinter code. Check for any errors or typos in your code that may be preventing the image from being displayed.
- If you are using an image from an external source (such as a URL), check that your internet connection is working properly and that the image is accessible.
- Try using a different image to see if the issue is specific to a particular image file.
- If none of the above steps resolve the issue, consider seeking help from online forums or communities dedicated to Python and Tkinter development.
By following these steps and troubleshooting your Tkinter image display issue, you should be able to resolve the issue and have your images showing correctly in your Python Tkinter GUI.

Thank you so much for sharing that, it helps!
You're AWESOME!!!!!
Ahhhhhh.. It's not working after following this step also showing pyimage doesn't exist
Thanks so much! Great video.
Python can be very frustrating.

Ok sir here is my function that uses the the PILL
import os
import sys
import customtkinter
from PIL import Image as PILImage
# set resources path for cx_Freeze
try:
if hasattr(sys, '_MEIPASS'):
"""If the script is running in a cx_freeze bundle (i.e. a compiled executable)"""
RESOURCES_PATH = os.path.join(sys._MEIPASS)
else:
"""Otherwise, use the current working directory (i.e. the project directory)"""
RESOURCES_PATH = os.path.join(os.path.abspath("."))
except Exception as e:
print("Error occurred while setting resources path: ", e)
def get_ctk_image(icon=None, image_path=None, size=32):
try:
if icon:
"""if icon is given, use the corresponding icon image from the resources folder"""
image_path = os.path.join(RESOURCES_PATH, 'desktop_apicons', f'{icon}.png')
return customtkinter.CTkImage(PILImage.open(image_path), size=(size, size))
"""create a CTkImage object from the image located at the given path and
resize it to the specified size"""
except FileNotFoundError as e:
print('File not found:', e)
except Exception as e:
print('Error occurred while getting CTkImage:', e)
def get_ctk_image(icon=None, image_path=None, size=32):
try:
if icon:
"""if icon is given, use the corresponding icon image from the resources folder"""
image_path = os.path.join(RESOURCES_PATH, 'icons', f'{icon}.png')
return customtkinter.CTkImage(PILImage.open(image_path), size=(size, size))
"""create a CTkImage object from the image located at the given path and
resize it to the specified size"""
except FileNotFoundError as e:
print('File not found:', e)
except Exception as e:

Sir please i'm also facing the same problem but my own is actually a GUI so what happen is when i run the application it work fine or the image display then when i want to logout from admin dashboard to the home page then i get this error saying _tkinter.TclError: image "|pyimage4" doesn't exist
