You are specifying the image file with no path information, so for 
wx.Bitmap to be able to find it the image file will need to be in the 
current working directory.  In other words the directory returned by 
os.getcwd().  If you don't have control over where your CWD is then 
you'll need some other way to find your images, like specifying a full 
path to the file, using the wx.StandardPaths class mentioned earlier, 
img2py, etc.
