Pinax Images Rethought

This is a fork of Pinax Images with some additions and changes that I thought Pinax Images missed.

Changes

1. Removed "preview" field in Admin.py. The Tag did not work and there already is a clickable link to the image in the Image field
2. Added "ID" readonly field to the inline-admin, so that pinax-blog images are usable again.
3. Added "Alt text" field to make alt-texts in template possible
4. Added image optimization using django-optimized-image

Installation

So far, the only way to install it, is to install it from source.

If you want to use it together with pinax-blog, you have to install the original pinax-images package first!

Using Pip

1. Open a commandline
2. Install the package with pip install git+https://github.com/doktormerlin/pinax-images-rethought.git

Using setup.py

1. Open a commandline
2. Clone this repository with git clone https://github.com/doktormerlin/pinax-images-rethought
3. CD To the cloned directory with cd pinax-images-rethought
4. Install the package using python setup.py install

Usage

Add OPTIMIZED_IMAGE_METHOD = 'pillow' to your settings.py

For other usage, please take a look at the original README file
