Thanks,
I've tried the StringIO option as follows:
=================================
img = Image.open('/some/path/img.jpg')
img.thumbnail((640,480))
file = StringIO, StringIO()
img.save(file, 'JPEG')
=================================
But it gives me:
=================================
exceptions.TypeError Traceback (most
recent call last)
C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\PIL\Image.py in save(self, fp, format,
**params)
1303
1304 try:

1306 finally:
1307 # do what we can to clean up
C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\PIL\JpegImagePlugin.py in _save(im, fp,
filename)
407 )
408

rawmode)])

464 bufsize = max(MAXBLOCK, im.size[0] * 4) # see RawEncode.c
465 try:
--> 466 fh = fp.fileno()
467 fp.flush()
468 except AttributeError:
TypeError: descriptor 'fileno' of 'file' object needs an argument
=================================
It looks similar to the code in Sparklines except for the fact that
the latter creates an Image from scratch.

Saving the image, in a
format your client understands, to a file like object like
StringIO.StringIO is an easy path to take.
Sparklines shows this in action:
