_tkinter.TclError: image "pyimage1" doesn't exist
when I have the file name clearly stated exactly where it is on my pc.
the code
import os
from turtle import Turtle,Screen
print(os.getcwd())
os.chdir('C:\\Users\\Travi\\Downloads')
screen.register_shape("Crawfish_attack.gif")
turtle = Turtle()
turtle.setimage("Crawfish_attack.gif")
thanks in advance
BTW the link is here
and the rest of the code all works and is not needed to be shown

Answer 1

Remove "\\Crawfish_attack" from the os.chdir() arguments. You need to path to the folder it is in, not the file. That is what the register_shape function will do is pull the exact file in that folder.
You were getting the error because you were trying to path to something (it was looking for a folder) that does not exist.
import os
from turtle import Turtle,Screen
print(os.getcwd())
os.chdir('C:\\Users\\Travi\\Downloads')
screen.register_shape("Crawfish_attack.gif")
