I already know I am going to get verbally abused because I know it is probably a simple fix. I am new to Python and I am trying to create a simple maze game for my class project. I am going over the tutorials which are quite simple, but when it attempted to import my logo, I keep getting the error that pygame couldn't open the image. Here is the code i've got thus far (after a couple of hours of googling, even found some on stack overflow but nothing seems to work):

import pygame
import os

def main():
    pygame.init()

    DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath("Python Stuff"))
    IMGS_DIR = os.path.join(DIR, "maze")

    logo = pygame.image.load(IMGS_DIR)
    pygame.display.set_icon(logo)
    pygame.display.set_caption("minimal program")


    screen = pygame.display.set_mode((240,180))


    running = True
    while running:
        for event in pygame.event.get():
            if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
                running = False


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

for the love of science, I have no idea what I am doing incorrectly. I have tried three different codes. The current os code i have implemented is supposed to be the direct path, but I am still getting the "Could not open ..../maze" error. The files are in the right spot, no spelling errors, the image is a PNG file, I have no idea what's going on. PLS HELP. I should be able to complete most, if not all, of the project today, as the character implementation is going to be the most difficult for this simple project.

    Try using "maze.png" – Seppeke Apr 11 '21 at 14:39

    [`pygame.image.load()`](https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/image.html) loads one single image. You must specify the filename of the image. – Rabbid76 Apr 11 '21 at 14:41

    Thank you guys. I knew it was simple fix. I am so excited right now!! I wish I could buy you guys a coffee or something. The maze.png worked fine. I'll take notes of the functions and reasons why they don't work so I'll know next time. – Chef Sweaty Apr 11 '21 at 14:45
