Hi and thanks :)

Ill try that later. But I need to keep the image outside of the db (not in 
a blob field), and only keep a reference to the location of the image on 
the disk. I am going to run a python script on the image I am uploading to 
do OCR analysis triggered by the Scheduler, so I need the image on the 
disk. How can I move the image to somewhere on the disk instead of saving 
it in the db?

Cheers
