Hi everybody, Having read a lot of peoples' questions about how to create types of objects that act as a container and into which you can upload stuff like pictures, and because I had a personal need for this type of object, I sat down and created "JPicture". I know, very imaginative name... JPicture is an "old-style" Zope product (meaning it is not ZClass-based and all components are on the file system) that is based on Zope's own Image class with the following additions: * a field of type "text" called "description" that allows you to store more than just a title with the picture * a second image can be uploaded into a JPicture as a "thumbnail" attribute. This can be done either when a JPicture is first created or at any point afterwards. Otherwise JPicture quacks and waddles just like a normal Image in Zope. Apart from my own need I hope it can serve as a model for those who have had problems in the past tackling the "uploading a file into an object"-problem. And if you're a big ZClass fan it is very easy to make JPicture into a Base class that can be inherited by a new ZClass by either replacing the code in __init__.py that starts with "context.registerClass..." with a line that reads "context.registerBaseClass(JPicture.JPicture, 'JPicture') or simply adding this after the "context.registerClass..." bit.
