File uploads haven't been completed in newforms. It's not a great
situation, but that's what happens with software that's currently in
development.
What I did in my view that worked:
p = Picture()
p.title = clean_data['title']
p.save_image_file(image['filename'], image['content'])
Basically, the relevant part is the save_blank_file (where blank is
the name of the part of the model to be saved).
Hopefully this will work for you!
