[Zope] Workflow question - additional information

[David Pratt]

I should have stated that my workflow script checks for image type in 
this directory. It uses PIL to make a variety of image sizes, but uses 
the pil image data to create a new object type in another directory. 
The workflow script deletes the image in the original directory after 
this has been done. Is there some way to perhaps test the size of the 
image's data and have the script wait until the data is there or 
involve the temp directory in some way (since uploading images through 
a form works with this workflow) so that the image is whole before the 
workflow script attempts to use it?

Regards,
David
