I see someone suggested imgseek. This uses a Haar transform to compare images (check on it). I did make a module based on imgseek, and together with PIL, I manage my archive of email attachments (it's incredible how many different versions of the same picture people send you: gif, jpg in different sizes etc) and it works fairly well. E-mail me if you want the module, I don't think I have it currently online anywhere. -- TZOTZIOY, I speak England very best. "Dear Paul, please stop spamming us."
