Post in Image Processing
GroupServer has far better image handling, thanks to Steven Clift, e-Democracy.org, http://e-democracy.org/ and Advanced Business Education Limited. Images, such as the one below, are now displayed on a Web page, rather than being treated like any other file. The page shows a scaled image, so you can look at it without having to download the full image, which can be quite large. The image-page also links to the other images in a topic, so you can view, say, the evolution of an interface from design to implementation. http://groupserver.org/r/img/1101-2008-06-24T030606Z The image-page is linked to from email messages, the view of the post on the Web, and from file searches http://groupserver.org/s/index.html?t=0&f=1 The view of a post also has a thumbnail of the image to the left of the link to the image page. The images are resized by the Python Imaging Library (PIL) http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ Richard did the hard-yards integrating PIL with GroupServer, with what is our first component to only rely on Zope 3. The same code that resizes the images that are posted to groups also resizes the peoples profile images, so the uploading code can be far more tolerant of oddly sized profile-images.
