I cannot change the background color of my python 2.7 tkinter application

I have been working on a Python 2.7 Tkinter GUI application for some time. Recently, I have been trying to add a different background color to my application. However, I cannot seem to change it. Since the application has about 236 lines of code, you can find the code on GitHub Here .

One of the solutions that I tried was adding the standard Tkinter background module. At the line 225:

if __name__ == "__main__":
   app = ManagementofFrames()
   app.geometry('900x760')
   app.configure(background='black')
   app.title("FindYourYoutuber:V0.0.1-Alpha")
   app.mainloop()

However, the background still stays white.

For a visual, here is what it looks like. Even with the Tkinter background module added. click here

You should set the main frame's background:

class Home_Page(tk.Frame):
    def __init__(self, parent, controller):
        tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent, background='black')

Hope it helps!
