Hi Bob, Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. To store binary data with the riak python client use the bucket.new_binary method. There are no functions that operate directly on files so you will have to read the file and pass the contents of the file as the data of the riak object. Here is an example of how one could read a file and store the data in Riak: http://gist.github.com/500082
