In adition, you may want to review ImageTag. Although its a hotfix, that product does exactly what you need, meaning it can make PIL to resize your stored images on the fly. If you're going to have a lot of these requests, you may consider instead to use Photo (it pre-sizes all thumbnails and stores them in the ZODB at the upload).

Hi; I know it's easy to write a script that proportionally changes the width and height of jpegs, but can I programmatically change the size of the image at the same time? In other words, in Photoshop I can make thumbnails that are considerably lighter than the original photos. Can I do the same programmatically? Is that what PIL is for? If so, any heads up on available scripts? TIA, beno
