GIF always contains 8-bit palette data, JPEG is almost always RGB (and never ever palette data). To make sure you have an RGB image, add</p> <blockquote> <dl class="docutils"> <dt>if image.mode != &quot;RGB&quot;:</dt> <dd>image = image.convert(&quot;RGB&quot;)</dd> </dl> </blockquote> <p>to the appropriate place.</p> <p>(btw, your preview function isn't compatible with IE's popup blockers (neither the built-in variant nor the google bar likes your popup window)).</p> phil http://base-art.net/Comments/92/ 2005-02-10T12:09:36Z <p>I only tested the script with jpeg images, i'll try to make it more compatible with other image formats .. And also i need to handle the case where the legend dimensions don't fit in the image.</p> Mike Watkins http://base-art.net/Comments/91/ 2005-02-09T18:41:02Z <p>ps, converted image to jpg - success; png form of same - failure - although an image is generated. File sizes expand quite a bit, particularly on the png so I presume its the output pre-compression or something like that. Image manipulation is not one of my fortes but I'll keep digging. Thanks for the head start...</p> Mike Watkins http://base-art.net/Comments/89/ 2005-02-09T17:55:05Z Thanks for your example - I've been meaning to pick up PIL for a drive and this may kickstart me. I fed your script a 441px x 336px GIF image and got this - any suggestions for a first look? <br/> <br/>Traceback (most recent call last): <br/>&nbsp; File "../test.py", line 80, in ? <br/>&nbsp; &nbsp; annotate(image, text, destination, font) <br/>&nbsp; File "../test.py", line 54, in annotate <br/>&nbsp; &nbsp; inboundBox = Image.blend(inboundBox, textBox, 0.5) <br/>&nbsp; File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 1599, in blend <br/>&nbsp; &nbsp; return im1._new(core.blend(im1.im, im2.im, alpha)) <br/>ValueError: images do not match <br/>
