<The problem is that when I try to add the new Image < folder.manage_addImage(img.id, img.data, '') <I get a seek error as if there is something wrong with I have been doing something very similar to this, (I was uploading images that I got from urllib calls). And the key is to make the data a string, otherwise it assumes that data is a file handle. So try this : folder.manage_addImage(img.id, str(img.data),'') I think that will work. Also, you may run into some issues with that manage_upload's ability to guess the content type. If so, I would store, the original img's content-type and manually set the content type of your new image after it is created. Cayce __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
