Hi i have a similar challenge where i need to store the thumbnailPhoto attribute to my local db and display the image every-time user logs in. But this solution does work . data looks like this: \xff\xd8\xff\xe0\x00\x10JFIF\x00\x01\x01\x01\x00`\x00`\x00\x00\xff\xdb\x00C\x00 \x08\x06\x06\x07\x06\x05\x08\x07\x07\x07\t\t\x08\n\x0c\x14\r\x0c\x0b\x0b\x0c\x19\x12\x13\x0f\x14\x1d\x1a\x1f\x1e\x1d\x1a\x1c\x1c $.\' ",#\x1c\x1c(7),01444\x1f\'9=82<.342\xff\xdb\x00C\x01\t\t\t\x0c\x0b\x0c\x18\r\r\x182!\x1c!222222222222222222222222222222222 import PIL from PIL import Image import io data = open("bytes.txt") my_data=(data.read()) photo_inline = io.StringIO(my_data) photo = PIL.Image.open(photo_inline) error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "convertToImage.py", line 9, in <module> photo = PIL.Image.open(photo_inline) File "", line 2657, in open % (filename if filename else fp)) OSError: cannot identify image file <_io.StringIO object at 0x0367FD00> -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
