title: Flashing Tkinter Labels
body: <p>I'm a beginner programmer in python and have recently began using tkinter though I have come across a problem which I can't solve.</p>
  
  <p>Basically I have two entry boxes.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Entry1 = message</li>
  <li>Entry2 = no. of flashes</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>(This is just an example of what I need.)</p>
  
  <p>All I need is a for loop for a label to pop up and flash <code>entry1</code> as many times as <code>entry2</code>, yes I realize how to get the entry inputs but I have no idea how to get the label to continuously flash, I have tried <code>pack_forget</code> and <code>.destroy</code> methods for the label in a loop, but unfortunately it does not display as it almost instantly clears it from the screen again.</p>
