[Image-SIG] Apparent Bug in PIL PhotoImage Function

[Paul Hughett]

I've found what appears to be a bug in PIL's ImageTk.PhotoImage
function and boiled it down to the following short program.  If there
is some official place to make bug reports, let me know and I'll make
one.

        self.root = root

        self.imageframe = Frame(root)
        self.image0 = Canvas(self.imageframe)
        self.image0.pack()
        self.imageframe.pack()

        img0 = Image.open("101_A10_0.bmp")
        img0.thumbnail((256,256))
        tkimg0 = ImageTk.PhotoImage(img0)
        self.image0.create_image(0, 0, anchor=NW, image=tkimg0)



root = Tk()
fest = imagewin(root)

root.mainloop()
root.destroy()
