I'm going to try to write some imange manipulation code (scaling, reading
EXIF and IPTC info) and just want to ask if PIL is *THE* library to use?
I looked at <http://www.pythonware. com/products/pil/and noticed that the
latest version is from Dec 2006.
In my experience that means that either it's abandoned or that it's very good
and stable.

Certainly the latter.

My own experience is that it's indeed a pretty good and AFAICT stable
library.

Depends on your requirements, but it's certainly the first library I
would check out. It offers lots of functionality, it is easy to use,
well documented and rock solid.

Sounds like PIL is a safe option, thanks.

Yes, certainly, PIL is the way to go. But beyond that, if you are going
to do any fancy manipulation of the array of pixels (e.g., image
processing, image recognition, convolution, ...), then I'd recommend
numpy for the array manipulation. (And perhaps even the full-blown
scipy.) Numpy can easily access and manipulate the pixel arrays
produced by PIL. It's an awesome combination.

Hi, I have an Access 2002 - 2003 database. I am using Access 2003.
Whenever I link an image all it shows is the filename. Not the image.
Other versions of Access can link the image just fine. The properties
look the same whether I use XP or 2003 versions of Office.
If I take an earlier version of Access and link the image, it puts the
image. I can also see the image in 2003. If I link the image using
2003 it only shows the filename....

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
