title: Retrieve and displaying BLOB images from Mysql database with Tkinter
body: <p>this def should connect to a database, and if the parameters are correct should retrieve a BLOB image, however i confused on how to display that image. currently, it will display all the other information besides the BLOB image that i want to be displayed. i realize that setting it to a stringvar is not correct. can anyone help with some clarity on how to get this to display in Tkinter? if not, is there any alternative solutions?</p>
  
  <pre><code>func = Tkinter.Toplevel()
  func.title("blah")
  func.geometry('400x400+0+0)
  
  db = MySQLdb.connect(host='xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', user='xxx',passwd='xxxx',db='xxxxx')
  cursor = db.cursor()
  
  FirstName = QE1.get()
  LastName = QE2.get()
  SSN = QE3.get()
  
  cursor execute ("""SELECT pat_face FROM PATIENT WHERE pat_firstname=%s AND pat_lastname=%s AND pat_id=%s""",(FirstName,LastName,SSN))
  
  PATFACEresults = StringVar()
  PATFACEresults.set(cursor.fetchone())
  
  db.close()
  
  PATFACE = Tkinter.Label(func, textvariable=PATFACEresults).grid(row=0,column=1)
  </code></pre>
