My understanding from what I've read is that most of the heavy lifting for image handling is done by PIL (Python Imaging Library) < http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ >. I've been getting into using virtualenv and as part of that I've been doing some PIL easy_installs. One PIL install was built with the jpeg library and when I tried uploading a jpeg image file, all went well. Another PIL was built without the jpeg library and when I tried to upload a jpeg image file, Django complained that the image wasn't in a recognized format. So, I assume Django is passing the file to PIL and asking if the file is in a format that PIL can deal with and is in a valid format. The PIL documentation may be able to clarify how it validates images.
