So basically you're saying you won't tell the users what the program *does*. I don't get that. Is it better than this? - scale each image to 100x100 - go black&white in such a way that half the pixels are black - XOR the images and count the mismatches That takes care of JPEG quality, scaling and possibly gamma correction, but not cropping or rotation. I'm sure there are better, well-known algorithms. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <grahn@ Oo o. . . \X/ snipabacken.se> O o . -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
