I receive the following error when trying to run this:
line 35 in
calendar_image = pylcdsysinfo.image.open(StringIO(r.content))
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'open'

I'm not a huge python expert so am struggling to resolve this. It looks like a great calendar though. Would love to try it out.
