These are the only lines of code that reference "imageLabel": imageLabel = Label(master = frame1, image = image) imageLabel.pack() Unless the constructor of Label adds a reference of itself to frame1, imageLabel will also become garbage collected at the end of the constructor. Are you sure this is the case? -Farshid -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
