Can PIL be replaced with 'pillow' ?

[jefflomax]

There is no PIL import for Python 3.6.3, according to this post, PIL is abandoned and shouldn't be used.

For other Python newbies, pip install pillow to get around the missing import (compatible with Python 3.6.3)
from PIL import Image

And do not rename the import from PIL to pillow.
(There goes the principle of least astonishment)
