When creating A Gui with Tkinter using lots of images cause the window to be larger than the screen how do I stop this?
when running the code the tkinter window displays like this:

What do you want it to do when the image is too large to fit? Refuse to display it? Shrink the image? Crop the image? scroll the image? Something else?

You should either crop the image using a photo editor so that the image is small enough to fit inside the window or run this code in python to make the tkinter window bigger:
self.master.geometry("1000x1000")
inside
__init__
and the
"1000x1000"
is x pixels by y pixels.
