Hi, This does not really work for me. When I import the photo's, I also add the creator to the Model, and give the user the option add the photo's to a specific event. The cronjob would just randomly import the photo's as soon as they are uploaded. So these two questions still stand: - It would be nice to open the uploaded file as an PIL image, resize it, and save it to the final destination, therefore saving an extra open() call. It is probably possible to do this in a subclassed ImageField, but I can't really get my head around these FileFields with the FieldFile classes. So what method would I have to override to do this? - What would be the best way to start a separate python script? And is there any way to communicate between de fastcgi script and the import script? Say pass that we are at image 25 of 100? Does anyone have a solution? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
