Hello David,
Does anyone know how to embed PIL into a py2exe program.
As far as I can tell PIL is not finding its plugins for Image I/O,
they are imported dynamically as required. So I cant load or save
pictures
PIL imports the drivers dynamically, so py2exe doesn't find them.
Including these lines should solve your problem.
## Static imports from PIL for py2exe
from PIL import GifImagePlugin
from PIL import JpegImagePlugin
I had the same problem, created a script call pil2exe which I import in my modules.

#FIXME:
# Hand pick only the modules you need (currently all *Plugin.py from PIL
# directory are imported)
#FIXME: Find who's the criminal and why, currently disable warnings
import warnings
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore")
