I would like to make a site, where the user can upload an image in any size. The site then have to convert the image to jpg or another optimized format. After that I would like to be able to display the picture in a form of shop-system, in different sizes. I have been looking at the Photo product, and it seems like it is close. I just can't see how I convert the image upon upload.
You will need to use a third party tool for that: I believe that the most prominent ones are: ------------------------------------- PIL (Python Image Library) http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ supported formats are: http://www.pythonware.com/library/pil/handbook/image-file-formats.htm I have used PIL, both standalone from Python, and under Zope. It's nice software and hasn't caused me any problems. ------------------------------------- Pythonmagick http://pythonmagick.procoders.net/ Which is a python interface for Imagemagick It seems to support more formats than PIL, but I have never tried it. http://www.imagemagick.org/www/formats.html For the simple task you need to do, you probably don't even need a Python module. You could just call Imagemagick via popen or something similar and make it do the conversion. regards Max M (Rart at se andre danske Zopebrugere)
