I solved the problem by using the Python packages from pythonmac.org (pythonmac.org/packages/). There seems to be no more problems with django an PIL.
The strange thing was that that PIL worked properly with the standard python from Mac OS 10.5. In the python shell I could retrieve the width and height of a jpeg image but when I tried to retrieve these properties with the django database api via get_picture_width() it did not work. Strange.. Well, now it works. Thanks for your answer. Thomas.
