Use the pre_save signal.
Write something like the following into some models.py file:
from django.dispatch import dispatcher
def attach_user_to_object(sender, instance, signal, *args, **kwargs):
# sender - the model which instance is being saved
# instance - the instance being saved
# ... assign the user to the instance if it has the created_by field ...
dispatcher.connect(attach_user_to_object, signal=signals.pre_save)
