I tried the code Jouke posted in Re: How to handle Tk::Photo-data()? and actually had to make one change to get it to work on this box (Win95). The GD::Image->new('feather.jpg') causes an error as that form is looking for numeric arguments (being the dimensions of a new image). If you look in the console window you should see the message: 
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at C:/Perl/s
+ite/lib/Tk.pm line 350.
Argument "feather.jpg" isn't numeric in subroutine entry at tkphoto.pl
+ line 17.

If you replace that line of code with: 
my $im = GD::Image->newFromJpeg('feather.jpg');

[download]
You should see an image (provided you have a file of that name of course ;-). It worked for me.
