Comment (by Christoph Rauch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>):
A few thoughts:
If an original image is smaller than the requested thumbnail size,
''ThumnailTooSmall'' is raised. This makes sense as upscaling the image
would increase its size.
I propose that instead of raising ThumbnailTooSmall, we return the
original image instead and add a mechanism to use HTML to do the
upscaling. This mechanism should be able to decide if is best to use
either ''height'' or ''width'' so the aspect ratio gets preserved.
I think we could make a wrapper around the ''thumbnail'' and ''img_tag''
templatetags. Perhaps change the current ''thumbnail'' to be
''thumbnail_url'' instead?
Any comments?
