Hi, I would convert[1] the image to binary pnm[2]. This is a very easy uncompressed image format. You don't need PIL to parse it. Read the file into memory. You could use a matrix: pic[0][0] first pixel pic[-1][-1] last pixel Then you coping or changing pixels is easy: for x in xrange(?, ?): for y in xrange(?, ?): ... At the end create png from pnm with convert. I hope this helps.
