I have 2 images, in png format. The second image, is a shape with transparent background.
First image:
Thanks Bryan. Got it, in addition to label, the issue of transparency resolved from another question here (same foregound image used as a mask)
I guess, this is what cost me -2 points :-|
Now it works as expected.
from Tkinter import *
import Tkinter
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
root = Tkinter.Tk() # A root window for displaying objects
# open image
imageHead = Image.open('head.png')
imageHand = Image.open('hand.png')
imageHead.paste(imageHand, (20, 40), imageHand)
# Convert the Image object into a TkPhoto object
tkimage = ImageTk.PhotoImage(imageHead)
panel1 = Label(root, image=tkimage)
panel1.grid(row=0, column=2, sticky=E)
root.mainloop() # Start the GUI
