Let's look at what these two lines mean.

  self._setObject(id, File(id,title,'',content_type, precondition))

This line adds a new object to the "self" object. Instead, you should
replace "self" with a reference to the object that you want to put the
image in.


  self._getOb(id).manage_upload(file)

This line gets the newly-created image object from "self", and fills it
with image data. You'll want to replace "self" with that same reference
you replaced it with in the last line.
