Django relies on Python Imagine Library to check if an image is valid or
not. Make sure that PIL was compiled w/ the libjpeg. I'm not sure on exact
directions on how to do that, but you can find them available online. When
you compile PIL, it will tell you what extensions are supported or missing
due to dependencies. Good luck!
