Re: Scaling pictures

PIL is certainly a fine option, but I noticed that the scaled images
(scaled with the ANTIALIAS filter) are not as good as you can get with,
say, Photoshop. Maybe I'm just expecting too much, but I wish I could
choose a higher quality rescaling algorithm. PIL still rocks though.

I found the Python Imaging Library but before I dive into that I would like
to know if there is a better way of doing this.Yes. Python Imaging Library (PIL) is the preferred Python way to do
this. The example is right in the documentation.http://www.pythonware.com/library/pil/handbook/image.htm

from PIL import Image
import glob, os

size = 128, 128

for infile in glob.glob("*.jpg"):
file, ext = os.path.splitext(infile)
im = Image.open(infile)
im.thumbnail(size, Image.ANTIALIAS)
im.save(file + ".thumbnail", "JPEG")
