I need to find out how to add images to the pip installer library that I use for the background and icons of the program

Question

In order to use the image, I use the following commands

bg = Photo Image(file = "DNA.png")
label1 = Label(window, image = bg)
label1.place(x = 0, y = 0)
window.iconbitmap('DNAChain.ico')

And everything works fine until I make it out of it.exe file via pip In the program, I use 2 images, one for the background and the second for the program icon, using pip to create a program.exe

D:\Python>pyinstaller --noconsole project.py --icon=D:\Python\NA Chai.icon

After creating it, I get the following error when running it

I'm a beginner, so I didn't come up with anything smarter than just transferring files to the dist or build foldersenter image description here

Answer 1

If it cannot find the image, then the image is not in the same root folder as its being told it is in your code. So unless you have a typo, the solution would be to have a root folder 'Project' a folder in the root folder 'dist' containing the image and then your 'Project.py' in that root folder as a sibling of the 'dist' folder. Also, I would recommend separating images and fonts into a different folder named 'assets' for the sake of organization instead of having it all in one dist folder.
