I'm building a web application that needs to create uniformly sized thumbnails of uploaded pictures, and I have been trying now for a very long time to get PIL working on my system without success with no luck whatsoever. Is there a better (or should I say working) method of having this image manipulation functionality in Zope? Unless you are willing to spell it out *explicitly* *please* don't give me more advice on how to get PIL working, I give up. I've tried at least ten different helpful suggestions (and tried reinstalling it from scratch three times)..none of them have worked.. I'm currently using the 2.24 binary release of Zope running on Debian Linux (potato) Basically what I need to do is script an external application to resize images using Zope as a control mechanism. The images don't have to reside within Zope (in fact, it is better if they don't..) Thanks.. -Chris
