Tkinter Image Labels Demo

This code is based on the Tcl image1.py demo. Note that if you want to show non-gif images you'll need to use the Python Imaging Library (PIL ... see the code in Tkinter Demos for an example of usage.) A Python 3 version is available from the University of California, Python Extensions site.
