Question About Files

[SheeppOSU]

I am making a game from the python and i had some problems so I asked someone and they told me to provide the absolute file path for my picture how do that. Just in case: it is a xcf file i named "backround.gif" and here's the code i'm using to create the picture.

self.bg = PhotoImage(file='Background.gif.xcf')
        w = self.bg.width()
        h = self.gb.height()
        for x in range(0, 5):
            for y in range(0, 5):
                self.canvas.create_image_(x * w, y * h, image=self.bg, anchor='nw')
        self.sprites = []
        self.running = True

import os

# change line 1 to:
self.bg = PhotoImage(file=os.path.abspath('Background.gif.xcf'))
