I'm trying to get past this error when I run load_workbook(). I tried doing a pip install PIL but that got me no results. Is there better instructions on how to install PIL.

Also, is there anyway I can just ignore the images all together? I don't need them and I'd rather just do add that setting then installing dependencies.

pip install pillow

No, we want to keep the signature as simple as possible.
