I may be able to offer some assistance here :)
i used the follow bit to create a thumbnail image and changed the name
of the file to include _tn.
def save(self):
super(ImageUpload, self).save()
if self.image:
tsize = 150,150
path = settings.MEDIA_ROOT + self.image.name
img2 = Image.open(path)
img2.thumbnail(tsize, Image.ANTIALIAS)
img2.save(self.get_thumbnail_path())
def get_thumbnail_path(self):
path = settings.MEDIA_ROOT + self.image.name
return self.convert_path_to_thumbnail(path)
def convert_path_to_thumbnail(self, path):
basedir = os.path.dirname(path) + '/'
base, ext = os.path.splitext(os.path.basename(path))
th_name = base + "_tn"
th_name += ext
return urlparse.urljoin(basedir,th_name)
