Is there any library that comes with python 3.5 that allows you to put images into you GUI?
I know Pillow exists but that's an external library just wondering if there's something else :P

Putting a gif image on a canvas with Tkinter
tested with Python24 by vegaseat 25jun2005
from Tkinter import *
create the canvas, size in pixels
canvas = Canvas(width = 300, height = 200, bg = 'yellow')
pack the canvas into a frame/form
canvas.pack(expand = YES, fill = BOTH)
load the .gif image file
put in your own gif file here, may need to add full path
like 'C:/WINDOWS/Help/Tours/WindowsMediaPlayer/Img/mplogo.gif'
gif1 = PhotoImage(file = 'DrBunsen.gif')
put gif image on canvas
pic's upper left corner (NW) on the canvas is at x=50 y=10
canvas.create_image(50, 10, image = gif1, anchor = NW)
run it ...
mainloop()
